About these units
Femtoliter (fL)
A femtoliter represents 10⁻¹⁵ liters and is commonly used in hematology, particularly in describing red blood cell size. A typical red blood cell has a volume of roughly 80–100 fL, making this unit ideal for medical diagnostics. Beyond medicine, femtoliters are used in microfluidics and nanoparticle research, where reaction chambers or droplets often hold only a few dozen femtoliters of liquid. The femtoliter exemplifies how modern science pushes measurement into realms dominated by statistical motion, molecular interactions, and quantum effects—scales that once seemed impossible to quantify.
Pint (UK) (pt (UK))
The UK pint, defined as 568.261 mL, is famous for its role in British pub culture. Beer and cider are traditionally served in pints, and the unit remains legally protected in pubs to this day. The pint is also used for milk and other daily-use liquids in the UK, maintaining its relevance even after metrication. Its larger size compared to the US pint (473 mL) is often a point of international curiosity. More than a measurement, the pint represents a cultural icon deeply woven into British identity and tradition.
