About Gallons
A US gallon (gal) = 4 quarts = 128 fl oz ≈ 3.785 L. Gasoline, milk, water, paint, and pesticides are sold by the gallon in the US. About 20% smaller than the UK imperial gallon (4.546 L) - a critical difference when comparing fuel economy across the Atlantic. 1 US gal = 3.785 L = 4 qt = 128 fl oz.
About Nanoliters
A nanoliter (nL) = 10⁻⁹ L. High-throughput drug screening platforms dispense 1-100 nL per well across 384- or 1,536-well plates. Acoustic liquid handlers (Echo) transfer nL volumes with <10% error CV. A human red blood cell ≈0.09 nL; a typical mammalian cell 1-4 nL. Capillary electrophoresis separates proteins in nL sample plugs. 1 nL = 10⁻⁹ L.
