Convert cubic centimeter to nanoliter
Please provide values below to convert cubic centimeter [cm^3] to nanoliter [nL], or Convert nanoliter to cubic centimeter.
1 cm^3 = 1000000 nL. To convert cubic centimeter to nanoliter, multiply the value by 1000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 nL = 1e-06 cm^3). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 cm^3 = 1000000 nL
- 1 nL = 1e-06 cm^3
- 10 cm^3 = 10000000 nL
- 100 cm^3 = 100000000 nL
How to Convert Cubic Centimeter to Nanoliter
1 cm^3 = 1000000 nL
Example: convert 15 cm^3 to nL:
15 cm^3 = 15 × 1000000 nL = 15000000 nL

Cubic Centimeter
A cubic centimeter (cm^3) is a unit of volume equal to the volume of a cube with sides of one centimeter.
History/Origin
The cubic centimeter has been used in scientific and engineering contexts as a standard unit of volume measurement, especially in fields like medicine and chemistry, since the adoption of the metric system in the 19th century.
Current Use
Today, the cubic centimeter is commonly used to measure small volumes in medicine (e.g., dosage), automotive engine capacities, and scientific experiments, often interchangeably with milliliters (mL).
Nanoliter
A nanoliter (nL) is a unit of volume equal to one billionth of a liter (10^-9 liters).
History/Origin
The nanoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's expansion to include smaller units for scientific and industrial measurements, particularly in fields like biology and chemistry, during the 20th century.
Current Use
Nanoliters are commonly used in laboratories for precise measurements of small liquid volumes, such as in microfluidics, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical research.
