Codeine to Morphine Converion Amount in Liver

Does anybody know any data or formula where one can figure out the amount in mg of morphine that will be converted from a certain mg of codeine intake? Also what is the exact liver saturation point of codeine where a person's liver can't convert anymore?

Swibf thinks this is what Swiy would be looking for.
