Les concentrations de produits chimiques toxiques dans l'environnement s'expriment souvent en milligrammes par kilo (mg/kg) ou milligrammes par litre (mg/l). Lorsqu'il s'agit d'œufs d'oiseaux, les concentrations sont habituellement données en fonction du poids de la partie liquide de l'œuf, c'est-à-dire son «poids frais». C'est donc dire que mg/kg (poids frais) désigne le nombre de milligrammes de contaminants par mille grammes de contenu de l'œuf. 1, record 1, French, - milligramme%20par%20kilo

Un símbolo […] es una representación gráfica generalmente del ámbito científico con validez internacional: unidades básicas y derivadas del sistema internacional (kg, m, s), elementos químicos (S, de azufre; K, de potasio, o N, de nitrógeno), operaciones matemáticas (+, %), unidades monetarias ($, €), etcétera. Como se ve, a diferencia de las abreviaturas, que son siempre acortamientos gráficos de la palabra que desarrollan (tel., de teléfono), los símbolos son invariables en plural y no llevan punto abreviativo. 2, record 2, Spanish, - miligramo%20por%20kilogramo
