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.
About Pipes
A pipe (also called a butt) = 2 hogsheads = 126 US gallons ≈ 477 L. The traditional ageing vessel for Port and Madeira: Port lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia store hundreds of thousands of pipes of Tawny, Ruby, and Vintage Port. Sherry butts (identical vessel) hold ~600 L. Craft American distilleries use pipes for extended whiskey maturation. 1 pipe = 126 US gal ≈ 477 L.
