About these units
Cubic Millimeter (mm³)
A cubic millimeter is the volume of a cube exactly 1 millimeter on each side, equal to 10⁻⁹ cubic meters or 0.001 milliliters. It is a very small volume, frequently used in medical imaging, microfluidics, materials science, and cell biology. In anatomy and radiology, tissue or tumor volumes are often quantified in cubic millimeters to express small but clinically significant structures. In engineering, mm³ can describe the displacement of precision components or the volume of micro-machined cavities. Microfluidic research—where entire laboratories are miniaturized onto chips—depends heavily on mm³ and smaller units, as channels and chambers hold extremely tiny volumes. Its precision scale makes it invaluable for applications requiring meticulous material control.
Quart (UK) (qt (UK))
A UK quart equals 1/4 of a UK gallon, approximately 1.13652 liters, making it significantly larger than the US quart. Historically used for beer, milk, and household liquids, the UK quart was a staple of British commerce for centuries. In many traditional recipes and food instructions, quarts remain in archival use. The quart illustrates the divergence between US and UK systems following the 18th-century measurement reforms, reflecting how cultural and regulatory environments shape unit evolution.
