Nanogram [ng]

The nanogram is a metric unit of mass equal to one-billionth of a gram.

• 
  

  1 nanogram = 0.000000001 grams = 10⁻⁹ grams

  
  
• 
  

  1 nanogram = 10⁻¹² kilograms

  
  
• 
  

  Symbol: ng

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  Used in fields like biochemistry, pharmacology, and environmental science to measure extremely small masses (e.g., toxins, DNA quantities)

  
  
• 
  

  The prefix "nano-" means $10^{-9}$ (one billionth)

  
  
• 
  

  Smaller than micrograms and widely used for precision measurements at molecular scales

  
  

The nanogram allows scientists to quantify minute amounts of substances with great accuracy.

Decigram [dg]

The decigram is a metric unit of mass equal to one-tenth of a gram.

• 
  

  1 decigram = 0.1 grams

  
  
• 
  

  1 decigram = 10⁻⁴ kilograms

  
  
• 
  

  Symbol: dg

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  Used for measuring small masses, often in laboratory or pharmaceutical contexts

  
  
• 
  

  The prefix "deci-" means $10^{-1}$ (one-tenth)

  
  
• 
  

  Smaller than a gram but larger than a centigram

  
  

The decigram is useful for precise measurement of small quantities where grams are too large a unit.
