per part
por parte = per part = parts per measurement
units of measurement mainly used for liquids. It mentions ensayo (test tubes) and percentages, so it reminds me of my old chemistry classes.

For precision, or if non-metric units are used, the solutions must be measured in a weight to weight ratio. A solution of a given percent is measured as the ratio of the weight of the dissolved material to the weight of the total (solution plus dissolved material.) The dissolved material is called the solute; the solute is dissolved in a solvent
