What does gallon (UK)/second measure?

It measures volumetric flow as one imperial (UK) gallon of fluid passing a point each second; one imperial gallon equals 4.54609 litres.

Why convert to milliliter per minute (mL/min)?

Because mL/min quantifies small controlled flow rates often used in medical, laboratory, and analytical settings requiring metric units.

How is the conversion factor between these units defined?

One gallon (UK)/second equals 272,765.4 milliliters per minute, based on volume and time conversion between imperial and metric units.
