How to Convert mg/dL to mmol/L?

Converting mg/dL to mmol/L is a straightforward process when you know the molecular weight of the substance.

Conversion Formula

mmol/L = mg/dL × 10 / Molecular Weight (g/mol)

Here:

• Mg/dL is the value you want to convert.
• Molecular Weight (g/mol) is the molecular weight of the substance.
• The factor 10 adjusts the units from deciliters to liters.

Example 1: Glucose

Convert 180 mg/dL of glucose to mmol/L:

• The molecular weight of glucose: is 180.16 g/mol.

mmol/L = 180 × 10 / 180.16

mmol/L = 9.99

So, 180 mg/dL of glucose equals 9.99 mmol/L.

Example 2: Cholesterol

Convert 200 mg/dL of cholesterol to mmol/L:

• The molecular weight of cholesterol is 386.65 g/mol.

mmol/L = 200 × 10 / 386.65

mmol/L = 200 × 0.025

mmol/L = 5.17

Thus, 200 mg/dL of cholesterol is approximately 5.17 mmol/L
