Convert liter to femtoliter
Please provide values below to convert liter [L, l] to femtoliter [fL], or Convert femtoliter to liter.
1 L, l = 1.0000e+15 fL. To convert liter to femtoliter, multiply the value by 1.0000e+15; to go the other way, divide by it (1 fL = 1.0000e-15 L, l). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 L, l = 1.0000e+15 fL
- 1 fL = 1.0000e-15 L, l
- 10 L, l = 1.0000e+16 fL
- 100 L, l = 1.0000e+17 fL
How to Convert Liter to Femtoliter
1 L, l = 1e+15 fL
Example: convert 15 L, l to fL:
15 L, l = 15 × 1e+15 fL = 1.5e+16 fL

Liter
The liter (L, l) is a metric unit of volume equal to one cubic decimeter, commonly used to measure liquids and other substances.
History/Origin
The liter was introduced in France in 1795 as part of the metric system, based on the cubic decimeter, and has since become a standard unit of volume worldwide.
Current Use
The liter is widely used in science, industry, and daily life for measuring liquids, beverages, and other fluids, especially in countries using the metric system.
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.
