Scruple: Apothecaries' Unit for Small Masses

The scruple is an old apothecaries' unit of mass equal to 1/24 of an ounce or approximately 1.296 grams. Historically used in pharmacology to measure medicine dosages, it has since been replaced by the metric system in most applications.

Its historical significance persists in classical medical texts and traditional medicine references, where scruples were essential for accurate medicinal formulation.

Grain (gr): A Historical Unit of Mass

The grain (gr) is a unit of mass equal to approximately 64.8 milligrams. It is one of the earliest units of mass and is still used today in specific contexts, such as measuring bullets, arrows, and medication dosages.

The grain's persistence in certain fields underscores the importance of understanding historical units and their modern equivalents for accurate mass measurements and conversions.
