Our Mission
Lab results are often reported in different units depending on the country, laboratory, instrument, or clinical specialty. A value may be shown as mg/dL in one report and mmol/L, µmol/L, ng/mL, pg/mL, mEq/L, or U/L in another.
Our mission is to provide fast, clear, and transparent calculators that help users convert these values without guessing. Each calculator is designed to show the result, the formula, and the logic behind the conversion.
What We Publish
We publish calculators and guides for common medical conversion topics, including core lab units, hormones, metabolic markers, blood and heart tests, electrolyte conversions, therapeutic drug monitoring, and specialty chemistry values.
Our content is focused on mathematical unit conversion. We do not provide diagnosis, treatment advice, medication recommendations, or personal interpretation of lab results.
How We Build Calculators
Every calculator is built around the specific rule required for that unit pair. Some conversions use a fixed factor. Others depend on molecular weight, valence, or enzyme activity units.
Before publishing a page, we check the formula, test sample values, and write a plain-language explanation so users can see how the answer is produced.
Our Editorial Principles
- Transparency: formulas and conversion factors should be visible.
- Accuracy: pages should use appropriate unit relationships for the selected substance.
- Clarity: explanations should be simple enough for students and patients to follow.
- Safety: calculators should not replace clinical judgment or lab-specific reference ranges.

Corrections and Updates
If a formula, molecular weight, label, or explanation needs improvement, we want to know. We review correction requests and update pages when a change improves accuracy, clarity, or user safety.
