| Description |
Stain: May-Grnwald-Giemsa (MGG). The eosinophil (11-15 μm) contains a bilobed nucleus and numerous large solitary brown-orange granules. The eosinophils are the first line of defense against parasites but also take part in allergic reactions (bronchial asthma). Arrow (↓) points to two platelets. |
