GIANTmicrobes Plush Toy - Thrombocyte (Platelet)
Thrombocyte - Platelet plush toy from GIANTmicrobes.
Have you ever wondered why thrombocytes are called platelets? Well, because when viewed under a microscope, they appear as tiny discs or "little plates."
But don't be fooled by their appearance... Despite their small size, they are incredibly effective. Whenever we need them (each time we get a cut or wound), platelets swell and extend their filaments to seal the break in the blood vessel. They are like our own "filler and sealant," and we are very grateful for them!
GiantMicrobes represent tiny microbes enlarged a million times.
The plush toys measure between 13 and 18 cm, depending on the model.
