Understanding Millimolar (Mm) And Nanomolar (Nm) Concentrations: Buffering Capacity And Sensitivity
Millimolar (mM; 10^-3 mol/L) and nanomolar (nM; 10^-9 mol/L) are molar concentration units. To convert 1 mM to nM, multiply by 1000; e.g., 10 mM = 10,000 nM. Millimolar solutions provide buffering capacity and are used in cell culture, while nanomolar solutions offer high sensitivity for enzyme kinetics and immunochemistry. They differ in their buffering…
