Guest guest Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 A divide by 18 factor relates to glucose conversions of mg/dL to mmol/L. Total cholesterol readings in mg/dL should be divided by 38.7 to get mol/L. I assume that HDL is similar. By the way, scientific work uses a lower case " l " for liter, but I always use upper case " L " to avoid it being confused witb 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
