About Megaliters

A megaliter (ML) = 10⁶ L = 1,000 m³. Australian and New Zealand water utilities report consumption and storage in ML; dam storage levels are broadcast in ML on national weather services. An Olympic swimming pool holds 2.5 ML. Sydney's total drinking water storage >2.6 million ML. 1 ML = 10⁶ L = 1,000 m³.

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.
