About Nanogram

The nanogram (ng) is a unit of mass and weight. One nanogram equals 1.000000 × 10^-12 kilograms. UnitConvertLab converts it against every other mass unit using this exact definition, so results are reproducible to full double precision rather than rounded lookup tables.

Common uses: mass calculations, engineering and science, education.

About Grain

The grain equals exactly 64.79891 milligrams and was originally the weight of a single barleycorn. It is still the standard unit for bullets, propellant and arrows.

Common uses: ammunition, archery, pharmacy (historic).
