How U-100 units relate to milliliters

U-100 is a volume scale: 100 units equals 1.00 mL. This relationship is fixed, but the amount of compound in each unit depends on the concentration in the vial.

Common U-100 volume equivalents

  • 10 units = 0.10 mL
  • 20 units = 0.20 mL
  • 30 units = 0.30 mL
  • 50 units = 0.50 mL
  • 80 units = 0.80 mL
  • 100 units = 1.00 mL

Why units are not milligrams

U-100 units describe liquid volume. Milligrams and micrograms describe mass. Connecting the two requires the vial concentration, which depends on the amount in the vial and the total liquid volume.

Use the generated scale, not a photograph

VialPilot generates all 101 integer scale positions programmatically and places the target line in that same coordinate system. The syringe photograph is decorative and is not used as the mathematical scale.
