Question

Each Insulin Bag has100 units in 100mL solution. If you have 100units/1mL, 10mL. How many bags can you prepare with the 10mL vial?

Answer 1

We have the stock solution with concentration 100 units/mL and volume 10 mL.

We require a solution of concentration 100units/100mL = 1unit/mL

Stock volume = (concentration required /stock concentration) * Volume required

10 = (1/100)* volume required

Volume required = 1000 mL

We will be able to 1000 mL of 100 units / 100 mL solution. Since each bag is to contain 100 mL.

Number of bags = Total volume / Bag volume = 1000/10 = 10

Hence ten insulin bags can be prepared with the 10 mL vial.
