µg/mL to nM

1 µg/mL in nM at common molar masses

Molar mass (g/mol)1 µg/mL

342.3 (sucrose)2,921 nM
1,0001,000 nM
5,000200 nM
10,000100 nM
25,00040 nM
66,500 (BSA)15.04 nM

How to convert µg/mL to nM

  1. Enter the value in µg/mL above. The unit is already set.
  2. Type the chemical formula (NaCl, C6H12O6) or the molar mass in g/mol. For a protein, use its mass in daltons: 66,500 for BSA.
  3. The table shows the concentration in nM and in every other unit.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula to convert µg/mL to nM?

Concentration in g/L = molarity × molar mass, so a mass concentration divided by the molar mass gives moles per litre. Convert the prefixes from there: 1 mg/mL is 1 g/L, 1 µg/mL is 1 mg/L.

What is 1 µg/mL of NaCl in nM?

NaCl has a molar mass of 58.44 g/mol, so 1 µg/mL is 17,110 nM.

Why do I need the molar mass?

µg/mL and nM measure different things: one counts mass, the other counts molecules. The molar mass, in grams per mole, links them, so the same mass of a heavy molecule is fewer moles.
