Worked example

2.82 g/L (middle of the reference range) = 282 mg/dL

Conversion formulas

mg/dL	mg/dL = g/L × 100	g/L = mg/dL × 0.01
g/dL	g/dL = g/L × 0.1	g/L = g/dL × 10
µmol/L	µmol/L = g/L × 12.57	g/L = µmol/L × 0.07955
mg/L	mg/L = g/L × 1000	g/L = mg/L × 0.001

Reference range

Unit	Adults
g/L	2.04 – 3.6
mg/dL	204 – 360
g/dL	0.204 – 0.36
µmol/L	25.64 – 45.25
