About these units
Milligram (mg)
A milligram is one-thousandth of a gram and essential for measuring extremely small masses with precision. Pharmacology relies heavily on milligrams to dose medications safely and consistently—especially potent drugs where differences of a few milligrams can be critical. In chemistry and laboratory science, milligrams are used to weigh reagents, catalysts, micro-samples, and test materials. Environmental science uses milligrams per liter or milligrams per kilogram to describe concentrations of contaminants. Its small size makes the milligram ideal for fields requiring strict quantitative control, and its stability within the metric system ensures predictable conversions during calculations.
Quintal (Metric) (cwt (m))
The metric quintal, equal to 100 kilograms, is commonly used in agriculture for measuring harvest yields, livestock feed, and bulk commodities such as grains, sugar, and potatoes. Its simplicity makes it popular in countries with strong agricultural sectors. Farmers, traders, and cooperatives find the quintal more intuitive for medium-sized loads than kilograms or metric tons. Though not an SI unit, it remains deeply embedded in agricultural commerce throughout Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
