Clotting helps stop any bleeding that may occur if a blood vessel is damaged. Platelets also are called thrombocytes (THROM-bo-sites) because a blood clot also is called a thrombus. A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood.hrombocythemia (THROM-bo-si-THE-me-ah) and thrombocytosis (THROM-bo-si-TO-sis) are conditions in which your blood has a higher than normal number of platelets (PLATE-lets). Platelets are blood cell fragments. They're made in your bone marrow along with other kinds of blood cells.
Caffeine was isolated from the coffee samples and measured by gas chromatography. Every serving but one -- instant decaffeinated Folgers Coffee Crystals -- contained caffeine, ranging from 8.6 milligrams to 13.9 milligrams. In comparison, an 8-ounce cup of drip-brewed coffee typically contains 85 milligrams of caffeine.
Instant coffee, also called soluble coffee because it dissolves in water, contains an average of 93 milligrams of caffeine in a prepared 8-ounce serving, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest. The range of caffeine content in an 8-ounce cup of instant coffee is 27 to 173 milligrams. The same amount of regular brewed coffee contains an average of 133 milligrams of caffeine, with a range of 102 to 200 milligrams. The type of coffee beans and brewing methods affect the caffeine content in coffee.
