| Define Millimole (mmol)? | 1/1000 of a mole *glucose is sometimes measured in mmols/L |
| Define Milliequivalent (mEq)? | 1/1000 of an equivalent *An equivalent is the amount of an ionized substance that has electrochemical binding power equal to one mole of hydrogen ions. *Electrolytes, cations, anions, and expressed in milliequivalents |
| Define Milliomole (mOsm) | 1/1000 of an osmole *An osmole is one mole of osmotically active particles. *Osmostic activity of fluids such as blood & urine are expressed in milliosmoles. *Glucose & proteins exert great osmotic influence. |
