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.
Pint (US) (pt (US))
A US pint equals 16 US fluid ounces, or about 473 milliliters. It is used extensively for beverages, dairy products, and food portions. Although derived from British systems, the US pint differs significantly from the UK pint, a discrepancy that often surprises international travelers. The US pint's prevalence in beer, ice cream, and milk packaging ties it closely to American food culture. In cooking and bartending, the pint provides a practical intermediate size, bridging the gap between cups and quarts. Its continued use reflects how cultural and culinary habits shape measurement preferences.
