    Hi all,
    Can anyone tell me the normal values for aggregation size and surface coverage for healthy individuals? Appreciate the help. Thank you. If you could add a reference that would be great.

    This is the exact paper you are looking for.

    http://www.uv.es/bacete/Histologia/Plaquetas_funcion.pdf

    Its a fairly comprehensive review and was the basis for an essay I done on platelet function testing back in college. I hardly remember much about it now unfortunatly, and it's a complex enough topic so I won't embarass myself trying to explain it now. The references within the paper are aso helpful

    You also may want to look up the current BSCH guidelines on platelet function testing, these are the reference values used at the hospital I last worked in.

    Best of luck with your research.
