White Blood Cell Identification

neutrophil

Neutrophil (granulocyte)

granulocyte, polylobed (3-5) nucleus; most common (60-70%)

Neutrophil (granulocyte)

granulocyte, polylobed (3-5) nucleus; most common (60-70%)

neutrophil

Neutrophils 60- 70%

purple. segmented nuclei .

Eosinophils (granulocyte)

dark red; bilobed (2 lobes) nucleus; 2-4%

lymphocyte

Eosinophils (granulocyte)

dark red; bilobed (2 lobes) nucleus; 2-4%

Basophils (granulocyte)

stain dark blue/purple; bilobed/irregular nucleus; 0.5-1%

Monocytes (no granules--> very few)

stain lavender; looks fuzzy because of lack of granules; very large; kidney bean/horse-shoe nucleus; 3-8%

Lymphocytes 25-30%

purple- little cell, large nuclei.

basophil

eosinophil

Basophils (granulocyte)

stain dark blue/purple; bilobed/irregular nucleus; 0.5-1%

Lymphocytes (very little cytoplasm, so little granules)

large, round nucleus makes up bulk of cell; little cytoplasm; 25-30%; smooth; stains purple

neutrophil

Monocyte 3-8%

purple - kidney shaped nuclei. Mega sized cell

lymphocyte

Monocytes (no granules--> very few)

stain lavender; looks fuzzy because of lack of granules; very large; kidney bean/horse-shoe nucleus; 3-8%

monocyte

Eosinophil 2-4%

red. two lobed nuclei.

eosinophil

Lymphocytes (very little cytoplasm, so little granules)

large, round nucleus makes up bulk of cell; little cytoplasm; 25-30%; smooth; stains purple

basophil

Basophil 0.5-1%

purple. dark granules (dots)

lymphocyte

Erythrocytes

Red Blood Cells

monocyte

Thrombocytes

platelets. helps in wound healing

eosinophil

Leukocytes

white blood cells

fights parasites

eosinophils

basophil

lymphocyte

releases histamine

basophils

monocyte

become macrophages. cleans debris by phagocytosis

monocyte

neutrophil

gains resistance as they fight foreign invaders. are low in individuals with HIV/AIDs

lymphocyte

neutrophil

most common of the WBCs

Agranulocytes

does not contain granules when stained
