Uric acid: mg/dL to µmol/L
1 mg/dL = 59.4849 µmol/L
Reference only. These conversions are arithmetic, not medical advice. Reference ranges differ between laboratories, and results should be interpreted by a clinician alongside the lab's own reported units and ranges.
Conversion table
| mg/dL | µmol/L |
|---|---|
| 3 mg/dL | 178.4546 µmol/L |
| 4 mg/dL | 237.9394 µmol/L |
| 5 mg/dL | 297.4243 µmol/L |
| 6 mg/dL | 356.9092 µmol/L |
| 7 mg/dL | 416.394 µmol/L |
| 8 mg/dL | 475.8789 µmol/L |
| 9 mg/dL | 535.3637 µmol/L |
| 10 mg/dL | 594.8486 µmol/L |
Going the other way, 1 µmol/L = 0.016811 mg/dL.
Why this conversion needs the substance
mg/dL measures mass; µmol/L measures amount of substance. Converting between them needs the molar mass of the thing being measured — for uric acid that is 168.11 g/mol. That is why a generic converter can't do it, and why every analyte has a different factor.
Jotal works this out from molar mass rather than a stored factor, so write
uric acid 7 mg/dL in µmol/L and it answers 416.394 µmol/L. Leave the substance out
and it deliberately returns nothing rather than guessing.
