- 4-5 days in tissue
-
eosinophil
- stain red
- 1-3% total WBC
- allergic reaction- release enzymes detox agents

-
lymphocytes
- 30%
- B-humoral-mediated immunity
- T- differentiate in thymus; helper-activate immune system, cytotoxic-cell mediated immunity
- NKC- innate or natural immunity destroy foreign cells
-
