The diagnosis of<unk>  is made through measuring the concentration of phosphate in the blood. A phosphate concentration greater than 1.46 mmol/l (4.5 mg/dl) is indicative of<unk> , though further tests may be needed to identify the underlying cause of the elevated phosphate levels. It is considered severe when levels are greater than 1.6 mmol/l ( 5mg/dl). Units Phosphates in blood exist in a chemical equilibrium of hydrogen phosphate (HPO42–) and dihydrogen phosphate (H2PO4–), which have different masses. Phosphate (PO43–) and phosphoric acid (H3PO4) are not present in significant amounts. Thus millimoles per liter (mmol/l) are often used to denote the phosphate concententration. If milligrams per decililiter (mg/dl) is used, it often denotes the mass of phosphorus bound to phosphates, but not the mass of some individual phosphate.
