| Description |
Stain: May-Grnwald-Giemsa (MGG), (black and white print). The giant polyploid cell (35-160 μm) contains a large multilobate nucleus. Note the ring-like pattern of the nuclei (1). The light-stained perinuclear zone (2) contains Golgi areas, within the encompassing greyish (intermediate) zone (3) granules and organelles are present. They represent future platelet formations. The light-stained peripheral area (marginal zone) (4) contains cytoskeletal elements. This large cell is surrounded by many developing small-sized blood cells. |
