Current Use
Today, the assay ton (AT US) is used mainly in the precious metals industry for assay purposes, especially in the context of gold and silver purity measurements, and is part of weight and mass conversions within the 'Common Converters' category.
Scruple (Apothecary)
A scruple (s.ap) is an old unit of weight used in apothecary measurements, equivalent to 1.3 grains or approximately 1.3 grams.
History/Origin
The scruple originated in ancient Greece and was adopted into Roman and medieval European apothecary systems. It was historically used for measuring small quantities of medicinal substances and drugs.
