  2. Cancer slope factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer_slope_factor

    C = Concentration of the chemical in the contaminated environmental medium (soil or water) to which the person is exposed. The units are mg/kg for soil and mg/L for water. IR i = Intake rate of the contaminated environmental medium for age bin "i". The units are kg/day for soil and L/day for water. BW i = Body weight of the exposed person for ...

  3. Relative density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_density

    A United States Navy Aviation boatswain's mate tests the specific gravity of JP-5 fuel. Relative density, also called specific gravity, [1] [2] is a dimensionless quantity defined as the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density of a given reference material.

  4. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    Densities using the following metric units all have exactly the same numerical value, one thousandth of the value in (kg/m 3). Liquid water has a density of about 1 kg/dm 3, making any of these SI units numerically convenient to use as most solids and liquids have densities between 0.1 and 20 kg/dm 3. kilogram per cubic decimetre (kg/dm 3)

    where A and B are reactants C is a product a, b, and c are stoichiometric coefficients,. the reaction rate is often found to have the form: = [] [] Here ⁠ ⁠ is the reaction rate constant that depends on temperature, and [A] and [B] are the molar concentrations of substances A and B in moles per unit volume of solution, assuming the reaction is taking place throughout the volume of the ...

  6. Enzyme assay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enzyme_assay

    Specific activity is equal to the rate of reaction multiplied by the volume of reaction divided by the mass of total protein. The SI unit is katal/kg, but a more practical unit is μmol/(mg*min). Specific activity is a measure of enzyme processivity (the capability of enzyme to be processed), at a specific (usually saturating) substrate ...

    1 kg = ⁠ (299 792 458) 2 / (6.626 070 15 × 10 −34)(9 192 631 770) ⁠ ⁠ h Δν Cs / c 2 ⁠. All units in the SI can be expressed in terms of the base units, and the base units serve as a preferred set for expressing or analysing the relationships between units.

  8. SI base unit - Wikipedia

    kg mass "The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 when expressed in the unit J s, which is equal to kg m 2 s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ∆ν Cs."

  9. Blood sugar level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar_level

    Unit conversion formula from mmol/L to mg/dL [5] m g / d L = m m o l / L × m o l e c u l a r w e i g h t ÷ 10 {\displaystyle mg/dL=mmol/L\times molecular\ weight\div 10} Since the molecular mass of glucose C 6 H 12 O 6 is 180.156 g/mol, the factor between the two units is about 18, so 1 mmol/L of glucose is equivalent to 18 mg/dL.
