Nanoliter
A nanoliter (nL) is a unit of volume equal to one billionth of a liter (10^-9 liters).
History/Origin
The nanoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's expansion to include smaller units for scientific and industrial measurements, particularly in fields like biology and chemistry, during the 20th century.
Current Use
Nanoliters are commonly used in laboratories for precise measurements of small liquid volumes, such as in microfluidics, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical research.
Cubic Inch
A cubic inch is a unit of volume measurement representing the volume of a cube with edges one inch long.
History/Origin
The cubic inch has been used historically in the United States and other countries that employ imperial units, primarily for measuring small volumes such as engine displacements and packaging, dating back to the adoption of the imperial system.
Current Use
Today, the cubic inch is still used in certain industries like automotive and manufacturing to specify engine sizes, engine displacements, and small volume measurements, especially in the United States.
