Monocyte in peripheral blood smear (human) | Stain: May-Grnwald-Giemsa (MGG). The nucleus of the mature monocyte has a kidney bean- or horseshoe-shape, is rather transparent compared to lymphocytes and granulocytes, and the cell is much larger (12-20 μm). The fine granular cytoplasm contains lysosomes, phagocytic vacuoles. Note platelets at (... | Poja Histology Collection - Blood & Bone Marrow Subset | |

Neutrophilic granules in PMN (spleen, human) | Electron microscopy. A detail of the cytoplasm shows many granules of varying forms (round, elongated to dumb-bell), sizes and densities. The majority of these electron-grey to electron-lucent granules are the specific or secondary granules (diameter 0.2 up to length 0.8 μm). They contain substance... | Poja Histology Collection - Blood & Bone Marrow Subset | |

Neutrophilic granulocyte | Scheme electron microscopy. The neutrophil is a phagocytic cell (12-15 m) with a segmented lobular nucleus (3-5 lobes) and many cytoplasmic granules filled with degradative enzymes.
