3 types of granulocytes? | Neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils |
Fxn of neutrophils? | phagocytosis, microbiocidal, and inflammation |
What are band neutrophils? | immature neutrophils |
inflammation is usually indicated w/ a what in bands? | increase |
morphology and fxn of eosinophils? | lobulated nucleus w/ red staining granules; parasites and allergies |
morphology and fxn of lymphocytes? | round nucleus w/ thin rim of blue cytoplasm; immune systemab's and lymphokines, inflammation |
Largest WBC? | monocyte |
morphology and fxn of monocyte? | +/- vacuoles, light blue cytoplasm, nuclear shape varies; phagocytosis |
when an increased # of immature neutrophils are in circulation? | left shift |
what are the 4 indicators of neutrophilic toxicity? | doehle bodies, nuclear hypersegmentation, foamy cytoplasmic basophilia, and toxic granulation |
T or F? may see doehle bodies in cats? | true |
what are doehle bodies? | larger blue staining inclusions in the cytoplasm |
toxic neutrophil grading scale 1+ | only doehle bodies seen |
2-3+ | variable intesity of cytoplasmic basophilia, foaminess, toxic granules |
4+ | cells to toxic to differentiate from reactive lymphocytes and monocytes |
