Picogram

What is a picogram?

A picogram (pg) equals 10^-15 kilogram.

Origin of the picogram

From the SI prefix 'pico-' (from Spanish 'pico', a small quantity).

Where it is used

Single-cell biology and ultratrace chemical analysis.

When and where it was developed

The pico- prefix entered the SI in 1960.

Indian / South Asian

Maund (Mann)

What is a maund (mann)?

The maund (mann) equals 40 seer, about 37.32 kilograms.

Origin of the maund (mann)

From Persian 'man' via Arabic, denoting a porter's load.

Where it is used

Bulk agricultural and commodity trade across South Asia.

When and where it was developed

British Indian maund fixed at 100 troy pounds (37.324 kg) in 1833.
