What is a femtoliter used to measure?

A femtoliter measures extremely small volumes such as individual cells or microdroplets, useful in fields like cell biology and microfluidics.

How many milliliters are in one US teaspoon?

One US teaspoon equals exactly 4.92892159375 milliliters, commonly rounded to 4.93 milliliters.

Why are femtoliter to teaspoon conversions so small?

Femtoliters represent extremely tiny volumes, so converting them to teaspoons, which measure much larger quantities, results in very small numerical values.
