Guest  +  16085 Tue, 16 Dec 03 06:33 PM What is the plural of cc? Is it cc's or just cc. E.g. To flush the IV use 5 cc's. Guest Plurals

	Melodie  +  16649 Mon, 22 Dec 03 12:34 AM Hi! In Canada we rarely use the measurement ' cc' anymore except in speech. Instead, we use millilitres. So...... the abbreviations would be ml and mls respectively. But, for those of us from 'the old school', we would write cc and cc's . Hope this helps. Anyone else have an example from their country???? Melodie Joined on Fri, Nov 28 2003 New Member 35 Abbreviations

	meg2589  +  39162 Sun, 25 Jul 04 08:01 AM cc an alternate symbol for the cubic centimeter (cm3). This symbol is obsolete and should not be used; cm3 should be used in its place. The cubic centimeter is the same volume as the milliliter (mL or ml). And for its plural, I think only cc is right, not cc's or ccs. meg2589 Joined on Thu, Jul 22 2004 Japan Junior Member 77 Plurals
