About Ounces per UK gallon
The ounce per UK gallon (oz/gal UK) equals ≈6.236 kg/m³, based on the avoirdupois ounce (28.349 g) and the UK gallon (4.54609 L). Used historically in British brewing, food manufacturing, and naval fuel specifications before metric adoption. Legacy recipes and Admiralty tables still express density in oz/gal UK. 1 oz/gal (UK) ≈6.236 kg/m³ = (1/16) lb/gal (UK).
About Micrograms per litre
The microgram per litre (µg/L) equals 10⁻⁶ kg/m³, numerically equal to mg/m³, and the standard unit for trace-level water quality. EPA maximum contaminant level for arsenic is 10 µg/L; WHO guideline for lead in drinking water is 10 µg/L; pharmaceutical water-for-injection requires total organic carbon below 500 µg/L. 1 µg/L = 10⁻⁶ kg/m³ = 1 mg/m³ = 1 ppb (mass) in dilute aqueous solutions.
