Complete list of UCUM #415

Description

@maxine-art

I can't seem to pinpoint the exhaustive UCUM units list, or a client is using a non UCUM unit, but it is marked as UCUM.
Am I missing something?

The unit I am referring to: 10*-1.{{copies}}/mL

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is no "exhaustive UCUM units list", the formal grammar for UCUM allows for an infinite number of valid expressions. The unit 10*-1.{{copies}}/mL is not valid UCUM.
    Section 2.1 §6 ■5 states:

    Curly braces must not be nested.

    And 10*-1.{{copies}}/mL contains a nested annotation. The expression 10*-1.{copies}/mL is valid.
