To read a tuberculin syringe you simply have to look at the calibrations on the syringe. Make sure that your eye is level to avoid taking a wrong reading as a result of parallax.

If using a tuberculin syringe instead of insulin syringe-how much insulin should i draw up?

When using a tuberculin syringe instead of an insulin syringe, it's important to note the differences in their measurements. A tuberculin syringe is calibrated in tenths of a milliliter (0.1 ml), while an insulin syringe is calibrated in units. To convert units of insulin to milliliters, you need to know the concentration of your insulin (typically 100 units per 1 ml). So, if you need to draw up 10 units of insulin with a tuberculin syringe, you would draw up 0.1 ml of insulin.
