measuring help

[lambchop]

Iv posted and searched on another forum, finding conflicting answers and no return post yet.....
Hopefully someone here can/will help a guy out. Iv also searched but didnt find the answer im looking for.

I have igf-1 lr3 1000mcg/2ml aa.
I have 1cc (100 units) insulin syringe, although I orderd 1/2 cc, i got these..oh well. gotta make it work.
How many ticks/marks is 60mcg of igf-1, or how many mcg is each tick?
Its 6 ticks, that would be 60 mcg on a 1cc slin pin if its 1000mcg/2ml correct?

If you have 1000mcgs in 2ml solution then each tick on a 100iu insulin pin is 10mcgs.

Thanks for replying access. I agree with you and the post searches iv done do also. But now a guy on another forum has said that 6 ticks on a 1cc pin would only be 30mcgs. Grrrr....why so confusing...

Forget the other guy..you have it right!

1000mcg / 2ml = 500mcg/ml
There are 50 ticks in a 1cc syringe
500mcg / 50 = 10mcg per tick
6 ticks = 60mcg

too easy right?
