This is written in my HBsAg quantitative test report:

Sample OD: 2.328
Cut-off OD: 0.150

What is the amount in IU/mL ?

This is just a qualitative test that is supposed to screen for HBV. Being a higher value than the cut off means you're positive for HBV. It doesn't tell anything about the amount of HBsAG u have. Get a qHbsag done for that.
