What is a milliliter?

The milliliter is one thousandth of a liter, exactly the volume of a cubic centimeter. It is the unit of medicine doses, perfume and cosmetics, and of drink labels in most countries; US bottles show it next to fluid ounces, as in 16.9 fl oz (500 ml).

What is a deciliter?

The deciliter is one tenth of a liter, or 100 milliliters. It is rarely seen in the US but appears in Swiss, Scandinavian and some French recipes, and in medical lab results such as cholesterol in mg/dL.
