Blood platelet biogenesis in homogeneous flow. (A) A proplatelet is immersed in a homogeneous flow with constant velocity mm/s and attached to a wall on the left-hand side. (B and C) The proplatelet undergoes a biological Rayleigh–Plateau instability while being extended by the homogeneous flow. (D) Systematic variation of the external flow velocity shows a strong and systematic acceleration of the duration of swelling formation.
