How to Convert Pint (US) to Femtoliter
To mL: multiply by 473.176. To liters: multiply by 0.473176. To UK pints: multiply by 0.832674.
1 US pt = 2 US cups = 16 US fl oz = 1/2 US quart = 1/8 US gallon ≈ 473.176 mL.
For example, 1 Pint (US) (pt (US)) = 4.731765e+14 Femtoliter (fL).

About Pint (US) (pt (US))
Definition
The US liquid pint is a unit of volume equal to 16 US fluid ounces, or approximately 473.176 milliliters.
Mathematical Relationship
1 US pt = 2 US cups = 16 US fl oz = 1/2 US quart = 1/8 US gallon ≈ 473.176 mL.
Conversion Formula
To mL: multiply by 473.176. To liters: multiply by 0.473176. To UK pints: multiply by 0.832674.
Practical Applications
Beer servings, ice cream containers, fruit and berry packaging (pint of strawberries), and cream/milk sizes.
Interesting Facts
A US pint is 473 mL, but a UK pint is 568 mL. The expression 'a pint's a pound the world around' works only for US pints (16 fl oz of water ≈ 1.04 lb).
Common Mistakes
Assuming a US pint equals a UK pint — ordering 'a pint' of beer in London gets you 20% more than in New York!
Educational Tips
2 cups = 1 pint, 2 pints = 1 quart, 4 quarts = 1 gallon. This is the US liquid volume chain.
About Femtoliter (fL)
Definition
The femtoliter is a unit of volume equal to 10⁻¹⁵ liters, or one quadrillionth of a liter.
Mathematical Relationship
1 fL = 10⁻¹⁵ L = 10⁻¹² mL = 1,000 aL = 1 µm³ (cubic micrometer).
Conversion Formula
To liters: multiply by 10⁻¹⁵. To picoliters: divide by 1,000. To attoliters: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
Measuring red blood cell volumes (normal MCV: 80–100 fL), inkjet droplet sizes, and flow cytometry particle analysis.
Interesting Facts
A human red blood cell has a volume of about 90 fL. The smallest inkjet droplets are in the range of 1–5 fL.
Common Mistakes
Assuming fL is too small to be practical — it is actually the standard unit used on every complete blood count (CBC) lab report.
Educational Tips
Remember: fL = femtoliter, the volume of blood cells. Normal MCV range: 80–100 fL. It's a key clinical measurement.
