Relationship between size and thiazole orange fluorescence of platelets in patients undergoing high‐dose chemotherapy

The reticulated platelet count relies upon the assumption that newly formed platelets contain a residual amount of RNA which selectively binds the dye thiazole orange (TO) and greatly enhances its fluorescence signal. It has, however, recently been shown that almost half of the platelet TO‐signal is...
