Figure 4 Detection of platelet microparticles (MPs) by flow cytometry. Dot plots in the left lower area of the scatter (area R1) represent platelet MPs; those in the right upper area (area R2) represent normal-sized platelets. The hematocrit values are 34.0% (A) and 70.9% (B). Note overproduction of MPs in B. FSC = front scatter; SSC = side scatter.
