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.
Exaliter
An exaliter (EL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^18 liters, used to measure extremely large quantities of liquid.
History/Origin
The exaliter was introduced as part of the metric system's extended prefixes to facilitate measurement of vast volumes, though it is rarely used in practical applications due to its enormous size.
Current Use
The exaliter is primarily used in scientific contexts, such as astrophysics and large-scale environmental studies, where measuring extremely large volumes is necessary.
