Conversion Formula
µg/min = slug/s × 875634176200
About Slugs per second
The slug per second (slug/s) equals 14.5939029372 kg/s, derived from the Imperial system where 1 slug = 1 lb·s²/ft ≈ 14.594 kg. The slug is the coherent mass unit in the foot-pound-second system; rocket propulsion engineers using US customary units express mass flow in slug/s. A standard American rocket engine consuming 75 000 lb/s of propellant corresponds to ≈75 000/32.174 ≈ 1 830 slug/s. 1 slug/s = 14.5939029372... kg/s.
About Micrograms per minute
The microgram per minute (µg/min) equals 10⁻⁹/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻¹¹ kg/s, used in capillary electrophoresis and gas chromatography mass flow calibration. A typical cold-trap atmospheric sampler collecting particulate matter draws air at a rate characterized in µg/min of PM2.5. 1 µg/min = 1/60 µg/s ≈ 1.667×10⁻¹¹ kg/s.
