It is also possible to use other units. For example, in the 1930s Widmark measured alcohol and blood by mass, and thus reported his concentrations in units of g/kg or mg/g, weight alcohol per weight blood. 1 mL of blood has a mass of approximately 1.055 grams, thus a mass-volume BAC of 1 g/L corresponds to a mass-mass BAC of 0.948 mg/g.
Orders of magnitude (mass) An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe. Typically, an object having greater mass will also ...
2,6-Lutidine is a natural heterocyclic aromatic organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 C 5 H 3 N. It is one of several dimethyl -substituted derivative of pyridine, all of which are referred to as lutidines. It is a colorless liquid with mildly basic properties and a pungent, noxious odor.
An equivalent (symbol: officially equiv; [1] unofficially but often Eq[2]) is the amount of a substance that reacts with (or is equivalent to) an arbitrary amount (typically one mole) of another substance in a given chemical reaction. It is an archaic quantity that was used in chemistry and the biological sciences (see Equivalent weight § In ...
Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is the ratio of inputs to outputs; it is the inverse of "feed efficiency" which is the ratio of outputs to inputs. [2] FCR is widely used in hog and poultry production, while FE is used more commonly with cattle. [2] Being a ratio the FCR is dimensionless, that is, it is not affected by the units of measurement used ...
Injection of hydroxycobalamin is often used if digestive absorption is impaired, [2] but this course of action may not be necessary with high-dose oral supplements (such as 0.5–1.0 mg or more), [90] [91] because with large quantities of the vitamin taken orally, even the 1% to 5% of free crystalline B 12 that is absorbed along the entire ...
Panicum miliaceum is a grain crop with many common names, including proso millet, broomcorn millet, common millet, hog millet, Kashfi millet, red millet, and white millet. [2] Archaeobotanical evidence suggests millet was first domesticated about 10,000 BP in Northern China. [ 3 ]
Cyanogen gas is an irritant to the eyes and respiratory system. Inhalation can lead to headache, dizziness, rapid pulse, nausea, vomiting, loss of consciousness, convulsions, and death, depending on exposure. [18] Lethal dose through inhalation typically ranges from 100 to 150 milligrams (1.5 to 2.3 grains).
