Blood Sugar Conversion — mg/dL to mmol/L and Back

Why one specimen has two numbers

A laboratory measures one thing: the concentration of glucose in plasma. Everything below is a change of unit, not a change of measurement.
mg/dL is a mass concentration — milligrams of glucose per decilitre. India, the United States and much of Asia report it.
mmol/L is a molar concentration — millimoles per litre. The UK, Australia, Canada and most of Europe report it.
The bridge between them is the molar mass of glucose, 180.16 g/mol, which in these units is 18.016. The clinical shorthand of “divide by 18” is accurate to within a rounding error across the entire reporting range.
No cut-point moves when the unit does. 126 mg/dL and 7.0 mmol/L are the same threshold written twice.

mmol/L = mg/dL / 18.016
mg/dL  = mmol/L x 18.016

Conversion panel

Both directions

Blood glucose in mg/dL (used in India, the US and much of Asia) and mmol/L (used in the UK, Australia, Canada and most of Europe). Divide mg/dL by 18.016 for mmol/L; multiply mmol/L by 18.016 for mg/dL.
mg/dL	mmol/L	mmol/L	mg/dL

300	16.7	18.0	324
350	19.4	19.0	342
400	22.2	20.0	360

The two halves of this table are independent — the left pair converts mg/dL to mmol/L, the right pair converts mmol/L back to mg/dL. The shorthand most clinicians use is "divide by 18", which is accurate to within a rounding error at every value on this page.

ಈ ವರದಿ ನಿರೀಕ್ಷಿಸುವ ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳು

How do you convert mg/dL to mmol/L?

Divide by 18.016. Most clinicians round that to 18. A fasting result of 126 mg/dL is 7.0 mmol/L; 200 mg/dL is 11.1 mmol/L.

How do you convert mmol/L to mg/dL?

Multiply by 18.016. So 7.0 mmol/L is 126 mg/dL and 11.1 mmol/L is 200 mg/dL — the two WHO diabetes thresholds, written in the other unit.

Why do India and the UK use different units?

Both describe the same thing. mg/dL is a mass concentration — milligrams of glucose per decilitre of blood. mmol/L is a molar concentration — millimoles per litre. India, the United States and much of Asia report mg/dL; the UK, Australia, Canada and most of Europe report mmol/L. The conversion factor comes from the molar mass of glucose, 180.16 g/mol.
