Convert nanoliter to liter
Please provide values below to convert nanoliter [nL] to liter [L, l], or Convert liter to nanoliter.
1 nL = 1e-09 L, l. To convert nanoliter to liter, multiply the value by 1e-09; to go the other way, divide by it (1 L, l = 1000000000 nL). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 nL = 1e-09 L, l
- 1 L, l = 1000000000 nL
- 10 nL = 1e-08 L, l
- 100 nL = 1e-07 L, l
How to Convert Nanoliter to Liter
1 nL = 1e-09 L, l
Example: convert 15 nL to L, l:
15 nL = 15 × 1e-09 L, l = 1.5e-08 L, l

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.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 nanoliter in liter?
1 nanoliter (nL) = 1e-09 liter (L, l).
How do you convert nanoliter to liter?
Multiply the nanoliter value by 1e-09. For example, 25 nL × 1e-09 = 2.5e-08 L, l.
What is 10 nanoliter in liter?
