| Convert from Tablespoon [UK] to minim [US] |
Unit Definition (Tablespoon [UK]) The tablespoon is a unit of volume used in food recipes. In Britain, traditional tablespoons varied somewhat in size, and various older references give sizes in the range from 1/2 to 5/8 Imperial fluid ounce (14.2-17.6 milliliters). The traditional British tablespoonful was often equal to 4 teaspoonfuls or 1/10 teacupful. Unit Definition (minim [US]) The minim [US] is a traditional unit of volume used for very small quantities of liquids. In pharmacy, the term drop traditionally meant the same thing as 1 minim. The minim is defined to be 1/60 fluid dram or 1/480 fluid ounce. The U. S. minim is equal to about 0.003 760 cubic inch or 61.610 microliters. The word comes from the Latin minimus, small.
