Unit History
About milligram
The milligram, one-thousandth of a gram, became important with the rise of pharmaceutical science and precision chemistry. It enables accurate dosing of medications and fine-grained measurement in laboratory settings where very small masses must be controlled and compared.
About kilogram
The kilogram is the SI base unit of mass. Once defined by a platinum-iridium artifact, it transitioned in 2019 to a definition based on the Planck constant, linking mass to immutable physical laws instead of physical objects.
