Humans cannot drink saline water. But, saline water can be made into freshwater, which is the purpose of this portable, inflatable solar still (it even wraps up into a tiny package). The process is called desalination, and it is being used more and more around the world to provide people with needed freshwater. Most of the United States has, or can gain access to, ample supplies of fresh water for drinking purposes. But, fresh water can be in short supply in some parts of the country (and world).
Platelet count is the number of platelets in the blood. A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 350,000. If the number of platelets is too low, excessive bleeding can occur. The medical name for a low platelet count is thrombocytopenia (throm-bo-sigh-toe-PEE-nee-uh).
Platelet Count. A platelet count is part of a complete blood count test. It is ordered when a patient experiences unexplainable bruises or when small cuts and wounds take longer time to heal. A normal platelet count of an average person is 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood.Others may have abnormal platelet count but it doesnât indicate any abnormality.latelets, red cells, and plasma are the major components that form the human blood. Platelets are irregular shaped molecules with a colorless body and sticky surface that forms into clots to help stop the bleeding. When a personâs normal platelet count is compromised that personâs life might be put in danger.
