Units explained
Cubic Foot
A cubic foot is the volume of a cube one foot on a side (28.3168 L).
Derived by cubing the international foot (0.3048 m).
Used for natural gas, refrigerators, shipping and HVAC.
1959 yard agreement.
Nanoliter
A nanoliter is 10⁻⁹ liter (10⁻¹² m³).
Formed with the SI prefix nano- applied to the liter.
Used in microfluidics, inkjet printing and single-cell assays.
Metric prefix system.
