What is a nanoliter used for?

A nanoliter is used to measure extremely small liquid volumes typical in microfluidics, molecular biology, and precision laboratory assays.

How is a gallon (UK) defined?

A gallon (UK), also known as the imperial gallon, is a volume unit set exactly at 4.54609 liters, often used in engineering and historical contexts.

Why convert nanoliters to gallons (UK)?

Conversion allows comparison between tiny laboratory volumes and larger industrial or historical fluid quantities expressed in gallons (UK).
