Convert femtoliter to attoliter
Please provide values below to convert femtoliter [fL] to attoliter [aL], or Convert attoliter to femtoliter.
1 fL = 1000 aL. To convert femtoliter to attoliter, multiply the value by 1000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 aL = 0.001 fL). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 fL = 1000 aL
- 1 aL = 0.001 fL
- 10 fL = 10000 aL
- 100 fL = 100000 aL
How to Convert Femtoliter to Attoliter
1 fL = 1000 aL
Example: convert 15 fL to aL:
15 fL = 15 × 1000 aL = 15000 aL

Femtoliter
A femtoliter (fL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^-15 liters, used to measure extremely small quantities.
History/Origin
The femtoliter was introduced as part of the SI prefixes for metric units, specifically to quantify very small volumes in scientific research, particularly in biology and chemistry.
Current Use
Femtoliters are commonly used in fields such as cell biology, microfluidics, and nanotechnology to measure tiny volumes like individual cells, droplets, or nanoliter-scale samples.
Attoliter
An attoliter (aL) is a unit of volume equal to 10^-18 liters, representing an extremely small volume measurement.
History/Origin
The attoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to create standardized prefixes for very small quantities, following the adoption of the International System of Units (SI). It is derived from the prefix 'atto-' which denotes 10^-18.
Current Use
Attoliters are primarily used in scientific research, particularly in fields like biochemistry and nanotechnology, to measure tiny volumes such as those of individual molecules or small biological samples.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 femtoliter in attoliter?
1 femtoliter (fL) = 1000 attoliter (aL).
How do you convert femtoliter to attoliter?
Multiply the femtoliter value by 1000. For example, 25 fL × 1000 = 25000 aL.
What is 10 femtoliter in attoliter?
10 fL = 10000 aL.
Which unit is larger, the femtoliter or the attoliter?
The femtoliter is the larger unit: 1 fL = 1000 aL.
