Lab Unit Converter: SI ↔ Conventional (Glucose, Creatinine, BUN, Calcium…)
Convert biochemistry results between SI and conventional units — glucose, creatinine, BUN/urea, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, bilirubin, cholesterol, triglycerides, albumin and total protein.
Results are calculated in your browser. Always double-check before administering and use your clinical judgement.
How it is calculated
Factors are calculated from molecular weight [1]: glucose mg/dL ÷ 18.016 = mmol/L · creatinine mg/dL × 88.4 = µmol/L · BUN mg/dL × 0.357 = urea mmol/L · calcium mg/dL × 0.2495 = mmol/L · phosphorus mg/dL × 0.3229 = mmol/L · magnesium mg/dL × 0.4114 = mmol/L · bilirubin mg/dL × 17.1 = µmol/L · cholesterol mg/dL × 0.02586 = mmol/L · triglycerides mg/dL × 0.01129 = mmol/L · albumin/total protein g/dL × 10 = g/L.
Worked example
Creatinine 2.0 mg/dL = 176.8 µmol/L.
