Convert Milligrams per second to Milligrams per hour
Convert Milligrams per second (mg/s) to Milligrams per hour (mg/h) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
mg/h = mg/s × 3600
About Milligrams per second
The milligram per second (mg/s) equals 10⁻⁶ kg/s, common in pharmaceutical tablet coating lines and laboratory syringe pump calibrations. A modern inkjet printhead deposits ink at roughly 1-10 mg/s per nozzle row during high-speed printing; medical infusion pumps are calibrated to this scale for drug-delivery accuracy. 1 mg/s = 10⁻⁶ kg/s = 60 mg/min.
About Milligrams per hour
The milligram per hour (mg/h) equals 10⁻⁶/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ kg/s, adopted in transdermal drug-patch pharmacokinetics to express dermal absorption rate. A nicotine patch typically releases 14-21 mg over 24 h, corresponding to ≈0.58-0.88 mg/h. Environmental emission tests for laboratory fume hoods also express contaminant escape in mg/h. 1 mg/h = 1/3600 mg/s.
