Explanation / Answer
Answer – For the converting of tyrosinase from mL to mg we must to know the density of tyrosinase.
We are given the volume of tyrosinase and we know the density of tyrosinase, so using the density formula we can calculate the mass of tyrosinase in gram from the given mL. Then we can convert this mass in gram to milligram.
We know formula for density
Density = mass / volume
Example -
Density of tyrosinase is like 1 g/L mens 0.001 g/mL
So for 1 mL it is 0.001 g
We know
1 g = 1000 mg
So, 0.001 g = ?
= 1 mg
