About these units
Fluid Ounce (UK) (fl oz (UK))
A UK fluid ounce equals 28.4130625 mL, slightly larger than the US fluid ounce. It forms part of the imperial system used in cooking, beverage preparation, and older pharmaceutical formulations. Imperial fluid ounces were historically derived from the UK gallon (1/160 of a gallon), distinguishing them from US units derived from a different gallon. Though metric units dominate in the UK today, fluid ounces still appear in bartending, antique recipes, and product packaging that caters to traditional preferences or legacy export markets.
Microliter (µL)
A microliter is 10⁻⁶ liters, a standard unit in laboratories worldwide. It is indispensable in pipetting, sample preparation, PCR reactions, enzyme tests, and pharmaceutical formulation. Most laboratory pipettes are designed with microliter precision, and many experiments rely heavily on the ability to dose volumes like 10 µL or 100 µL with high accuracy. Its use outside laboratories includes medical diagnostics, such as blood sampling, allergy testing, and microdose vaccine research. The microliter is an essential unit linking biological processes to controlled experimental conditions.
