Units explained
Attogram
An attogram (ag) equals 10^-21 kilogram.
From the SI prefix 'atto-' (from Danish 'atten', eighteen).
Frontier nanoscience and single-molecule mass detection.
The atto- prefix was adopted by the CGPM in 1975.
Tael
The tael equals about 37.8 grams (ten mace).
From Malay 'tahil'; the Chinese unit is the 'liang'.
East Asian precious-metal and traditional-medicine commerce.
A long-standing East Asian trade weight, with regional variants.
