How this urea conversion is calculated
General formula: mg/dL ÷ 6 = mmol/L
- 1. Start with the value in mg/dL: 420.
- 2. Divide by the analyte-specific factor: 420 ÷ 6.
- 3. Result in mmol/L: ≈ 150.
420 mg/dL to mmol/L (Urea (BUN-based))
420 mg/dL urea (bun-based) converted to mmol/L using the correct factor for this test.

Tips and important notes for urea
- Urea is produced when the body breaks down protein and is cleared by the kidneys.
- High urea can reflect kidney impairment, dehydration, high protein intake, or bleeding in the gut.
- Different labs may report either urea or urea nitrogen; they use different conversion factors.
