| Description |
Scheme electron microscopy. The diameter of monocytes ranges from 12-20 m. Characteristic is the large (kidney-shaped) nucleus with one or more nucleoli (1) and several indentations. The cytoplasm contains: (2) Golgi areas, (3) electron-dense lysosomal granules or primary or azurophilic granules with acid phosphatase, arylsulfatase; (4) phagosomes (vacuoles); (5) mitochondria. Small pseudopodia (6) reflect the ameboid movement and phagocytic ability. |
