Platelets are important elements in the blood that are important for blood coagulation (clotting and prevention of bleeding). The normal platelet count ranges between 150,000 and 450,000 per microliter (one-millionth of a liter).
Known as Slauerhoffbrug (Slauerhoff Bridge), it is a tail bridge (kind of a bascule bridge) which can be quickly and efficiently raised by means of hydraulic mechanism to allow frequent passage of water traffic with minimum disruption to the vehicular traffic.uilt in 2000 the bridge is operated automatically almost every hour by two hydraulic cylinders which lift high in the air, a huge 15m by 15m portion of asphalt road. When closed the bridge deck merges seamlessly with the approach roads at both the ends.
That bridge was replaced with a concrete bascule bridge in 1968. The bridge became a very popular fishing spot for local residents, and was nicknamed The fishingest bridge in the world. The current bascule bridge opened on November 18, 2012.The current span is 9 feet tall, similar to its predecessor.After its demolition, the previous bridge (the one built in 1968) will be made into an artificial reef at Novak's reef, which is about 3 miles off the coast of Charlotte County.he current span is 9 feet tall, similar to its predecessor.
