UnitFactor
https://ontology.toxindex.com/v1/UnitFactor QuantityOne factor of a unit: an atomic unit with an optional SI prefix, raised to an exponent, optionally qualified by what it measures. A negative exponent places the factor in the denominator. The basis distinguishes factors that share dimensions but not meaning, such as the kilogram of body weight in a daily dose and the milligram of substance it divides.
