Convert teaspoon (metric) to microliter
Please provide values below to convert teaspoon (metric) [tsp (metric)] to microliter [µL], or Convert microliter to teaspoon (metric).
1 tsp (metric) = 5000 µL. To convert teaspoon (metric) to microliter, multiply the value by 5000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 µL = 0.0002 tsp (metric)). Both units measure volume and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 tsp (metric) = 5000 µL
- 1 µL = 0.0002 tsp (metric)
- 10 tsp (metric) = 50000 µL
- 100 tsp (metric) = 500000 µL

Teaspoon (Metric)
A teaspoon (tsp) is a unit of volume measurement commonly used in cooking, equal to approximately 5 milliliters in the metric system.
History/Origin
The teaspoon originated from the traditional spoon used for eating and serving, standardized over time for measurement purposes. Its metric equivalent was established to facilitate consistent cooking and recipe measurements worldwide.
Current Use
Today, the teaspoon is widely used in cooking and baking to measure small quantities of ingredients. It is also employed in medicine for dosing and in various measurement conversions within the culinary and scientific fields.
Microliter
A microliter (µL) is a unit of volume equal to one millionth of a liter, or 10^-6 liters.
History/Origin
The microliter was introduced as part of the metric system to facilitate precise measurement in scientific and medical fields, especially with the advent of micro-scale laboratory techniques.
Current Use
Microliters are commonly used in laboratories for measuring small liquid volumes, such as in chemistry, biology, and medical diagnostics, often in conjunction with micropipettes and microfluidic devices.
