About Milliliter (mL)

A metric unit of volume equal to one thousandth of a liter (0.001 L) or exactly one cubic centimeter. Milliliters are the everyday metric unit for medicine dosing, cooking measurements outside the US, laboratory chemistry, perfume and beverage cans. A standard medical syringe is 10 mL; a shot glass is about 44 mL; a standard intravenous saline bag is 500 or 1,000 mL. In chemistry and pharmacy, mL and cc (cubic centimeters) are used interchangeably.

About Tablespoon (tbsp)

A US culinary unit of volume equal to 1/16 of a US cup, or 3 teaspoons (about 14.79 mL). Tablespoons are the standard unit for small-quantity cooking measurements: butter, oil, herbs, sauces, and dressings. Nutrition facts panels on US foods often quote "per tablespoon" serving sizes (e.g., peanut butter, maple syrup). Note that the Australian tablespoon is 20 mL (not 15 mL), which can cause measurement issues when converting international recipes.
