What does femtogram per liter [fg/L] measure?

Femtogram per liter quantifies extremely small masses of a substance dissolved or suspended in one liter of liquid, often used for ultratrace concentration measurements.

Why convert fg/L to mg/mm³?

Converting to milligram per cubic millimeter translates ultratrace concentrations in large liquid volumes to density values relevant at microscopic volume scales for detailed analyses.

In what fields is this conversion commonly applied?

It is commonly used in environmental monitoring, analytical chemistry, material science, biomedical research, pharmaceutical analysis, additive manufacturing, and microfluidics.
