Convert megaliter to picoliter
Please provide values below to convert megaliter [ML] to picoliter [pL], or Convert picoliter to megaliter.
1 ML = 1.0000e+18 pL. To convert megaliter to picoliter, multiply the value by 1.0000e+18; to go the other way, divide by it (1 pL = 1.0000e-18 ML). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ML = 1.0000e+18 pL
- 1 pL = 1.0000e-18 ML
- 10 ML = 1.0000e+19 pL
- 100 ML = 1.0000e+20 pL
How to Convert Megaliter to Picoliter
1 ML = 1e+18 pL
Example: convert 15 ML to pL:
15 ML = 15 × 1e+18 pL = 1.5e+19 pL

Megaliter
A megaliter (ML) is a unit of volume equal to one million liters.
History/Origin
The megaliter is part of the metric system, introduced as a larger unit for measuring large volumes, especially in water management and environmental contexts, following the adoption of the metric system in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Current Use
Megaliters are used today in fields such as hydrology, water resource management, and environmental science to quantify large volumes of liquids, particularly water.
Picoliter
A picoliter (pL) is a unit of volume equal to one trillionth (10^-12) of a liter.
History/Origin
The picoliter was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to create smaller units for measuring very small volumes, especially in scientific and technological fields, during the late 20th century.
Current Use
Picoliters are commonly used in fields such as biochemistry, molecular biology, and microfluidics to measure tiny liquid volumes, such as in DNA analysis, microarray experiments, and lab-on-a-chip devices.
