  2. Blood sugar level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar_level

    In the United States, Germany, Japan and many other countries mass concentration is measured in mg/dl (milligrams per decilitre). [4] Since the molecular mass of glucose C 6 H 12 O 6 is approximately 180 g/mol, the difference between the two units is a factor of about 18, so 1 mmol/L of glucose is equivalent to 18 mg/dL.

    The conversion between the two anomers can be observed in a polarimeter since pure α-d-glucose has a specific rotation angle of +112.2° mL/(dm·g), pure β-d-glucose of +17.5° mL/(dm·g). [63] When equilibrium has been reached after a certain time due to mutarotation, the angle of rotation is +52.7° mL/(dm·g). [ 63 ]

  5. Mole map (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_map_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, a mole map is a graphical representation of an algorithm that compares molar mass, number of particles per mole, and factors from balanced equations or other formulae. [1] They are often used in undergraduate -level chemistry courses as a tool to teach the basics of stoichiometry and unit conversion .

Atom balance is maintained by the two phosphate (P i) groups: Each exists in the form of a hydrogen phosphate anion, dissociating to contribute ...

  7. Equivalent concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_concentration

    Normality is defined as the number of gram or mole equivalents of solute present in one liter of solution.The SI unit of normality is equivalents per liter (Eq/L). = where N is normality, m sol is the mass of solute in grams, EW sol is the equivalent weight of solute, and V soln is the volume of the entire solution in liters.

  8. Glucose test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_test

    A level below 5.6 mmol/L (100 mg/dL) 10–16 hours without eating is normal. 5.6–6 mmol/L (100–109 mg/dL) may indicate prediabetes and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) should be offered to high-risk individuals (old people, those with high blood pressure etc.). 6.1–6.9 mmol/L (110–125 mg/dL) means OGTT should be offered even if other ...

  9. Glucose 6-phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_6-phosphate

    This is a very efficient storage mechanism for glucose since it costs the body only 1 ATP to store the 1 glucose molecule and virtually no energy to remove it from storage. It is important to note that glucose 6-phosphate is an allosteric activator of glycogen synthase, which makes sense because when the level of glucose is high the body should ...
