strange though as I cannot find any site with php as "per hundred parts", only:

StateMaster - Encyclopedia: Parts per billion
Parts per hundred (denoted by '%' and very rarely 'pph') - denotes one particle of a given substance for every 99 other particles. ...
www.statemaster.com/encyclopedia/Parts-per-billion - Cached

Good luck!
