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.

How many units of insulin are in a mililiter?

You cannot make a direct conversion of insulin IU to ml. It depends on the concentration of insulin in the vial you are using. One commonly used concentration is 100 IU/ml, (sometimes called "U100") but this is NOT true for all insulin. If the concentration is 100 IU/ml, then each ml contains 100 IU and the conversion is 100 units = 1 ml.
