normal peripheral blood cells

  1. azurophilic granules
    reddish purple granulues (lysosomes) visible in lymphocytes
  2. basophilic granules
    granules in basophiles that stain purple black because of affinity for basic stain
  3. b-cell
    • lymphocytes from the bone marrow
    • produces humoral antibodies
  4. chromomere
    centrally located granular portion of platelet
  5. eosinophilic granules
    • granules present in cytoplasm of eosinophils
    • large reddish-orange
    • strong affinity for acid stain
  6. fixed macrophage
    phagocyte that is non-motile
  7. free macrophage
    ameboid phagocyte present at site of inflammation
  8. heparin
    anticoagulant that inhibits thrombin
  9. hyalomere
    clear blue non granular zone surrounding chromomere of platelet
  10. lysosome
    small body within cytoplasm that contains hydrolytic enzymes
  11. neoplasm
    tumor
  12. neutrophilic granules
    • lilac color
    • affinity to both basic and acid stain
  13. PF3 (platelet factor 3)
    • lipoporotein component of the plt membrane
    • functions as a surface catalyst during blood coagulation
  14. pseudopod
    temperorary protrusion of cytoplasm of a cell
  15. senescence
    process or condition of growing old
