We present new calibrations of the widely used 
, ![${\rm [OII]}$](/articles/aa/abs/2005/45/aahg051/aahg051_tex_eq2.png)
, and UV luminosity vs. star
formation rate (SFR) relations. Using our evolutionary synthesis code GALEV we
compute the different calibrations for 5 metallicities, from 1/50 solar up to 2.5 solar. We find significant changes in the calibrations for lower
metallicities compared to the standard calibrations using solar input physics.
