What is a fluid ounce (UK)?

A fluid ounce (UK) is an imperial unit of liquid volume equal to 1/160 of an imperial gallon or exactly 28.4130625 millilitres.

Why convert fluid ounce (UK) to microliters?

Microliters are used to measure very small liquid volumes precisely, which is essential in scientific, medical, and engineering settings requiring detailed quantification.

Can I use this conversion for US fluid ounces?

No, because the fluid ounce (UK) is different from the US fluid ounce. It's important to confirm the unit origin before converting.
