Part Description
LP18643-4 Granulocytes
Granulocytes are a category of white blood cells characterised by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm. Mature granulocytes comprise neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils, depending on the staining of the granules. Neutrophils, also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN or PML) because of the varying shapes of the nucleus, are by far the most abundant granulocytes.
