Femtoliter
A femtoliter (fL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^-15 liters, used to measure extremely small quantities.
History/Origin
The femtoliter was introduced as part of the SI prefixes for metric units, specifically to quantify very small volumes in scientific research, particularly in biology and chemistry.
Current Use
Femtoliters are commonly used in fields such as cell biology, microfluidics, and nanotechnology to measure tiny volumes like individual cells, droplets, or nanoliter-scale samples.
Cubic Foot
A cubic foot (ft^3) is a unit of volume representing the space occupied by a cube with sides of one foot in length.
History/Origin
The cubic foot has been used historically in the imperial and US customary measurement systems for measuring volume, especially in construction, real estate, and engineering contexts.
Current Use
Today, the cubic foot is still used in the United States and some other regions for measuring large volumes of liquids, gases, and bulk materials, particularly in industries like construction, shipping, and HVAC.
