Hi Henry,

the amount you wrote expands to 10 nanomolar per ml: the nanomole per litre
per millilitre is a pretty unusual unit - I imagine that they meant 10
nanomoles per ml (which is equivalent to 10 micromoles per litre or ten
micromolar - which seems fair), but used the "M" by accident when they meant
"mole".
