German term or phrase: *pl
I have a page of lab results before me, and the last line is:

"Glucose, Fluoridpl 5.5 mmol/l"

What's the "-pl" after Fluorid?

Thanks,

Ford Prefect: 2:36pm Nov 23, 2005: Is your text an OCR job? Looks like a typo to me. -
Islandboy: 3:11pm Nov 23, 2005: no OCR - No, it's not an OCR job, it's a photocopy of the original lab report from a Swiss-German hospital. It looks computer-generated, so I doubt that somebody could have introduced a typo while typing up the lab results... so if it is a typo, it has to be in virtually every lab result from that hospital.

neutral Ford Prefect: mmol/l is certainly "mmol per litre" but the question is "what is the "-pl" after Fluorid" - the text has "Fluoridpl", all one word.
