20000 IU equals how many millilitres?
IU stands for International Units and is used for the measurement of drugs and vitamins and is the quantity of a biological active substance needed to produce a particular biological effect agreed upon as an international standard. As such you can not simply convert the measurement to other units of mass or volume since each substance would have a different conversion ratio.

What does iu mean in measurement?
IU= international unit. This is a unit used to measure the activity (that is, the effect) of many vitamins and drugs. For each substance to which this unit applies, there is an international agreement specifying the biological effect expected with a dose of 1 IU. Other quantities of the substance are then expressed as multiples of this standard. This also means that this measurment is not based on sheer volume or weight of the substance, but rather the effect.

30 unit of 40 iu insulin is equal to how much unit of 100 iu insulin?
IU is international units and it's same whether it's of 40 IU or 100 IU insulin. But one is supposed to use 40 iu syringe for 40 IU and 100 IU syringe for 100 IU insulin. You take 30 units in corresponding syringe, dose is gonna remain same. If you interchange the syringe then things get complicated and need to do some math. So for 30 units of 40 IU insulin and want to use 100 IU/ml syringe then you need to use 75 units of 40 IU in 100 IU syringe. Avoid interchange of syringe to be safe.
