Detailed explanation-1: -The normal number of platelets in the blood is 150, 000 to 400, 000 platelets per microliter (mcL) or 150 to 400 × 109/L. Normal value ranges may vary slightly. Some labs use different measurements or may test different specimens. Talk to your doctor about your test results.

Detailed explanation-2: -The mean normal platelet count is between 250, 000 and 260, 000 cells/mm3, although there is a wide range of accepted normal values in most laboratories that extend as low as 150, 000 to as high as 400, 000/mm3.

Detailed explanation-3: -A normal platelet count in adults ranges from 150, 000 to 450, 000 platelets per microliter of blood. A platelet count of less than 150, 000 platelets per microliter is lower than normal. When you have a low platelet count, you may have trouble stopping bleeding.

Detailed explanation-4: -Whole blood derived platelets should contain a minimum of 5.5 x 1010 platelets per unit with an overall volume of around 50 mL.

Detailed explanation-5: -A normal platelet count range is 150, 000-400, 000 per mm3 of blood (some providers prefer an upper range of 450, 000 per mm3). During treatment, your platelet count may drop. Your platelet count will be checked with blood tests as needed.
