Variability of P-selectin expression on unstimulated/resting platelets. Representative histograms and scatter plots of flow cytometric analysis of unstimulated platelets isolated in 2 dogs on the same day. Platelets were identified by their light scatter properties and binding of CD61. Histogram demonstrates the number of activated platelets shown as P-selectin positive. a Resting platelets with mimimal P-selectin positive platelets and characteristic light scatter profile of canine platelets. b Unstimulated platelets collected from a different dog showed increased P-selectin-positive platelets with side-scatter property indicative of increased degranulation (arrow)
