About Cubic Centimeters
A cubic centimeter (cm³), also written cc, is the volume of a cube with sides of one centimetre = exactly 1 mL. 'cc' is the preferred notation in medicine, mechanical engineering, and automotive contexts. Engine displacement is measured in cc (a 1,000 cc motorcycle engine has 1 L displacement); syringe dosages are labelled in cc. A standard sugar cube ≈1 cm³. 1 cm³ = 1 mL.
About Minims
A minim (min) is the smallest US apothecary unit = 1/480 fl oz ≈ 0.0616 mL, defined as approximately one drop of water. 60 minims = one fluid dram; 480 minims = one fluid ounce. Now largely superseded by millilitres, minims survive in traditional compounding recipes, older US pharmacopeias, and historical pharmaceutical literature. 1 min ≈ 0.0616 mL.
