| Description |
Electron microscopy. In this picture the large nucleus (1) of this cell (diameter of 12-20 μm) is twice sectioned. Golgi areas (2) and centriole, profiles of rough endoplasmic reticulum (3) and many free ribosomes are present. There are many mitochondria (4) as well as scattered homogeneous electron-dense/-grey lysosomal granules (5) (primary or azurophilic granules with acid phosphatase, arylsulfatase) in variable amounts and sizes. Thin filopodia (6) reflect the ameboid movement and phagocytic ability. |
