This module defines apothecaries' measures of mass. These measures are rarely used.
Included are all units mentioned here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_customary_units Where possible, conversion rates have been independently verified at a US government website. However, Wikipedia's base is much better organized than any government resource immediately available. The US government references used are as follows: http://nist.gov/pml/wmd/metric/upload/SP1038.pdf http://nist.gov/pml/wmd/pubs/upload/appc-14-hb44-final.pdf
Documentation
The apothecaries' grain is the same as the avoirdupois grain.
The apothecaries' ounce and pound are the troy ounce and pound.
