picomole to micromole
Convert picomole (pmol) to micromole (μmol). Use an editable amount of substance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 pmol = 0.000001 μmol
Conversion formula
One picomole equals 0.000001 micromole. Multiply your value in picomole by this factor to get micromole. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 picomole:5 × 0.000001 = 0.000005 μmol

About these measurements
Amount of substance counts specified elementary entities in moles.
The base reference used here is the mole. One picomole is 1e-12 base units; one micromole is 0.000001 base units.
Important distinctions
Always specify whether the entities are atoms, molecules, ions, or another defined type.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert pmol to μmol?
Multiply the quantity in pmol by 0.000001. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the micromole to picomole converter.
