About these units
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.
Board Foot (board foot)
A board foot is a unit of volume used in lumber, defined as a board measuring 1 foot long × 1 foot wide × 1 inch thick, equal to 144 cubic inches, or about 2.36 liters. The unit reflects a material-centric approach to volume: rather than measuring empty space, the board foot measures solid wood content, crucial for pricing logs, boards, and woodworking materials. Forestry operations, sawmills, and lumber yards rely heavily on board-feet calculations to estimate yields from logs, determine pricing, and evaluate timber resources. The unit persists due to deep integration with North American construction and carpentry practices.
