About these units
Picoliter (pL)
A picoliter is 10⁻¹² liters, bridging the gap between femtoliters and nanoliters. Many biological cells—such as yeast—have volumes in the picoliter range. This makes the unit particularly important in cell biology, single-cell genomics, and droplet microfluidics. Inkjet printers famously eject droplets on the order of a few picoliters, illustrating a precise and widespread technological use. This droplet size affects print resolution, color quality, and material deposition accuracy. The picoliter is also used in chemical analysis, micro-sampling, and lab-on-chip devices, where controlling tiny fluid quantities is essential for efficiency and precision.
Bath (Biblical) (bath)
A bath is a medium-scale Hebrew unit, estimated at about 22–23 liters. It was used for liquids such as wine and oil and appears in numerous Biblical passages relating to temple rituals and royal allocations. As 1/10 of a homer, the bath provided a manageable quantity for domestic and ritual purposes. References to baths of oil and wine in ancient texts reveal the significance of controlled measurement in both trade and religious offerings. Its size roughly corresponds to the volume of a modern bucket, emphasizing its practicality in daily life.
