  • But it is a fixed ratio.
    If it was in pounds, metric tons, moles or atomic mass units… It doesn’t change the ratio, the actual number.

    Would it be acceptable to drop the unit all together?
    “Lethal dose is 0.000000012 : 1 (substance : bodyweight)” (I made up the number).
    I’m not sure if there is a better way of writing the ratio.

    Could a fraction be more applicable?
    “lethal dose is 1/600000 of bodyweight”

    I’m sure it’s written as ng/kg to show the base units are the same, and the rest is just “fiddling” scientific notation
