cells-of-the-blood
Cells of the blood
-
Blood is a tissue composed of a number of important specialised cells, including:
-
Red blood cells
-
Monocytes
-
Neutrophils
-
Lymphocytes
-
-
These cells all have distinguishable structures which enable them to be recognised on microscope slides, in photomicrographs and in electron micrographs
-
Red blood cells contain haemoglobin
-
This is a protein with a quaternary structure that contains haem iron groups which can bind reversibly to oxygen
-
-
Distinctive features of red blood cells when viewed under a microscope, are their distinctive biconcave disc shape (caused by their lack of nucleus)
-
Monocytes are identifiable by their size
-
They are the largest of the leukocytes and have a nucleus shaped like a kidney or a bean
-
-
The nucleus of monocytes tends to appear lighter after staining than other leukocytes
-
The nucleus should appear a light blue colour, while the chromatin inside is distinct and fine
-
Neutrophils are distinguished by their multi-lobed nuclei
-
Up to 70% of all leukocytes are neutrophils
-
This makes them easy to spot on a micrograph
-
-
The granules of neutrophils typically stain pink or purple-blue
-
Lymphocytes are small leukocytes that are identifiable by their very large nuclei, which typically stains a dark colour
-
Lymphocytes constitute around 20-25% of all leukocytes
-
Lymphocytes are around the size of red blood cells
