Picoliter
A picoliter (pL) is a unit of volume equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a liter.
History/Origin
The picoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to create smaller units for measuring very small volumes, especially in scientific and technological fields, during the late 20th century.
Current Use
Picoliters are commonly used in fields such as biochemistry, molecular biology, and microfluidics to measure tiny liquid volumes, such as in DNA analysis, microarray experiments, and lab-on-a-chip devices.
Hundred-Cubic Foot
A hundred-cubic foot is a unit of volume equal to 100 cubic feet, commonly used in measuring large quantities of gases or liquids.
History/Origin
The hundred-cubic foot has historically been used in industries such as natural gas and HVAC to quantify large volumes, especially in the United States, as a convenient measure for gas quantities.
Current Use
Today, the hundred-cubic foot is primarily used in the natural gas industry to measure gas volumes, though it is less common with the adoption of standard SI units like cubic meters.
