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 Now largely superseded by millilitres, minims survive in traditional compounding recipes, older US pharmacopeias, and historical pharmaceutical literature. 1 min ≈ 0.0616 mL.
About Cubic Inches
A cubic inch (in³) is the volume of a cube with sides of one inch (25.4 mm), equal to approximately 16.387 mL. It is widely used in US engineering and manufacturing - engine displacement was traditionally described in cubic inches (a 350 in³ V8 engine displaces 5.7 liters), and product specifications for items sold in the US frequently reference cubic inches. Speaker cabinet volumes, wine bottle capacities in older US standards, refrigerator compartment sizes, and box shipping calculations in imperial units all use cubic inches. One liter equals approximately 61.024 cubic inches.
