Worked example
1.5 µg/L (middle of the reference range) = 0.15 µg/dL
Conversion formulas
| µg/dL | µg/dL = µg/L × 0.1 | µg/L = µg/dL × 10 |
|---|---|---|
| nmol/L | nmol/L = µg/L × 8.896 | µg/L = nmol/L × 0.1124 |
| ng/dL | ng/dL = µg/L × 100 | µg/L = ng/dL × 0.01 |
| ng/L | ng/L = µg/L × 1000 | µg/L = ng/L × 0.001 |
Good to know
Cadmium (blood) is reported in µg/L or µg/dL. The page converts between the units only.
- µg/dL × 10 = µg/L (exact factor 10).
- The range shown is a guide from the named source; targets and reference ranges differ between laboratories, methods and indications, so compare with the range on your own report.
Reference range
| Unit | Adults |
|---|---|
| µg/dL | 0 – 0.3 |
| µg/L | 0 – 3 |
| nmol/L | 0 – 26.69 |
| ng/dL | 0 – 300 |
| ng/L | 0 – 3000 |
