Unit Description
Milligram per Milliliter (mg/mL)
Definition
Milligram per milliliter (mg/mL) is a unit of density expressing the mass in milligrams contained in one milliliter of volume. It's commonly used for measuring concentrations of dissolved substances in solutions.
History
The mg/mL unit became crucial with the development of modern pharmacology and analytical chemistry. It provided a convenient way to express drug concentrations, chemical solutions, and biological fluid compositions with appropriate precision for medical and research applications.
Current Use
Mg/mL is extensively used in medicine, pharmacology, and biochemistry for drug concentrations, IV solutions, laboratory reagents, and biological samples. It's standard in pharmaceutical manufacturing, clinical laboratories, and medical dosing calculations.
Pound per Cubic Foot (lb/ft³)
Definition
Pound per cubic foot (lb/ft³) is a unit of density expressing the mass in pounds contained in one cubic foot of volume. It's one of the most commonly used density units in imperial systems for construction and engineering applications.
History
The lb/ft³ unit evolved from traditional English measurements and became standard in American construction and engineering. It provided a convenient scale for measuring building materials, with many common materials having easily remembered values in this unit.
Current Use
Lb/ft³ is extensively used in the United States for construction materials, HVAC calculations, structural engineering, and building codes. It's standard for measuring density of wood, concrete, insulation, and other building materials in American construction industry.
