    Uploaded by

    Rosalie Andal
    This document provides conversion factors from conventional units to SI units for various medical tests in biochemistry, hematology, and hormones. It lists the test, conventional unit, conversion factor to convert to the SI unit. For example, it shows that albumin in conventional units of g/dL converts to g/L in SI units using a conversion factor of 10. It also includes a temperature conversion chart showing Celsius and Fahrenheit equivalents.
