About Abvolts per centimetre

The abvolt per centimetre (abV/cm) is the electric field unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abV / 1 cm = 10⁻⁸ V / 0.01 m = 10⁻⁶ V/m, exactly equal to 1 µV/m. It appears in nineteenth-century electromagnetic texts alongside the abampere and abohm when deriving field solutions from the CGS-EMU form of Coulomb's law. 1 abV/cm = 10⁻⁶ V/m = 1 µV/m.

About Millivolts per centimetre

The millivolt per centimetre (mV/cm) equals exactly 0.1 V/m, used in electrophoresis, biosensor calibration, and bioelectric stimulation research. Standard DNA gel electrophoresis runs at 5-15 V/cm = 5 000-15 000 mV/cm; transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) produces cortical fields of 0.1-0.5 mV/cm; field-effect biosensors detect analyte-binding events as mV/cm-scale potential gradients. 1 mV/cm = 0.1 V/m.
