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.
Teaspoon (US) (tsp (US))
The US teaspoon equals 4.92892 mL, though rounded to 5 mL in most practical applications. Before standardization, teaspoon sizes varied widely across households and manufacturers. With the rise of packaged foods, pharmaceuticals, and industrial recipes, the US standardized teaspoon values brought consistency to cooking and medicine. Today, the teaspoon remains the most common household unit for measuring small amounts—especially spices, extracts, and medicines.
