Question

Hello.

What is the difference between μg/ml and mg/g^-1?

(How can I convert the one unit to the other?)

Answer 1

Oups. I think I did a mistake.. the second unit was written as: mg g^-1
(maybe does not need the /)

Answer 2

I think the second equation could be rewritten mg/g
and what is it supposed to be?
Milligrams per ??

Answer 3

yes i g^-1 is the same with /g

Answer 4

how can i convert μg/ml to mg/g?? is it possible?

Answer 5

mg/g is just a number because they're both grams with different "magnitude"

µg/ml does state the weight per volume, though - it's different

Answer 6

@phanta_seea it is not possible to find the second given the first??

Answer 7

you can not convert them

Answer 8

into each other, mg/g is missing the volume information (ml, L, ..)

Answer 9

if i know the weight of the tissue used???

Answer 10

for example for chlorophylls.. I used a tissue of X grams in 5ml..

Answer 11

X grams in 5 ml
