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.
Dram
A dram is a unit of volume traditionally used to measure liquids, equivalent to 1/8 of an fluid ounce or approximately 3.7 milliliters.
History/Origin
The dram originated in the apothecary system in medieval Europe and was historically used for measuring medicines and small quantities of liquids. Its use has declined with the adoption of metric units.
Current Use
Today, the dram is primarily used in the context of measuring spirits and liquors, especially in the United States, where it is often used to denote a small serving or shot of alcohol.
