mS/cm = µS/cm × 0.001
About Microsiemens per centimetre
The microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm) equals 10⁻⁴ S/m and is the standard unit for drinking-water conductivity monitoring (50-800 µS/cm) and surface-water quality surveys. Regulatory thresholds for potable water are often set in µS/cm; hand-held probes for aquaculture and hydroponics report in µS/cm. 1 µS/cm = 100 µS/m = 10⁻⁴ S/m.
About Millisiemens per centimetre
The millisiemens per centimetre (mS/cm) equals 0.1 S/m, the practical scale for seawater (≈50 mS/cm), blood plasma (≈14 mS/cm), and standard electrolyte solutions in electrochemistry laboratories. Conductivity-cell instruments for desalination plants and industrial process control commonly read in mS/cm; NIST-traceable calibration solutions are certified in mS/cm. 1 mS/cm = 100 mS/m = 0.1 S/m.
