Part Description

LP14328-6   Basophils
Basophils are granular white blood cells characterized by a pale-staining nucleus with 2 to 3 lobes and a cytoplasm containing coarse, dark-staining granules of variable size. They represent 0.5-1% of circulating leukocytes and they are stained by basic dyes. When activated, they release histamine, leukotrienes and a number of cytokines.
