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 Picoliters
A picoliter (pL) = 10⁻¹² L = one cubic micrometre. Inkjet printers deposit 1-10 pL droplets per dot to achieve >600 DPI. Droplet microfluidics uses pL-sized reaction chambers for digital PCR and single-cell analysis, detecting a single DNA molecule per droplet. High-throughput drug-screening robots dispense compounds in pL volumes into 1,536-well plates. 1 pL = 10⁻¹² L.
