What is the conversion rate from milliliters to microliters?

1 milliliter is equal to 1000 microliters.

Can this tool be used for non-liquid substances?

No, the converter is designed for liquid volumes only and does not account for density or physical state.

Why is precision important when converting milliliters to microliters?

Because microliter volumes are very small, even minor measurement errors can significantly affect the accuracy of results.
