What is a US fluid ounce used for?

A US fluid ounce measures small liquid volumes in cooking, beverages, and product labeling within the United States customary system.

Where are femtoliters commonly applied?

Femtoliters quantify very tiny liquid volumes in scientific fields like cell biology, microfluidics, and nanoscale chemistry.

Why do conversions between fluid ounces and femtoliters result in large numbers?

Because fluid ounces measure macroscopic volumes while femtoliters represent extremely small volumes, leading to very large conversion results.
