Worked example

0.845 mmol/L (middle of the reference range) = 74.8 mg/dL

Conversion formulas

g/L	g/L = mmol/L × 0.8854	mmol/L = g/L × 1.129
mg/dL	mg/dL = mmol/L × 88.5	mmol/L = mg/dL × 0.0113
g/dL	g/dL = mmol/L × 0.08854	mmol/L = g/dL × 11.29
mg/L	mg/L = mmol/L × 885.4	mmol/L = mg/L × 0.001129
µmol/L	µmol/L = mmol/L × 1000	mmol/L = µmol/L × 0.001
