Neutrophil, Granulocyte Neutrophilbnb1Y (Neutrophil), Leukocyte Polymorphonuclear b1Y (Polymorph)

Neutrophil, Granulocyte Neutrophil, Leukocyte Polymorphonuclear leukocyte (Polymorph) - a type of granulocyte (polymorphonuclear leukocyte), characterized by a lobed nucleus and the presence of small neutrophilic and azurophilic granules in the cytoplasm; the latter are stained purple with Romanovsky dye. Neutrophils are able to engulf and destroy bacteria by performing phagocytosis. Typically, one liter of blood contains 2.0-7.5x109 neutrophils.



Neutrophil granulocyte (neutrophil) is a type of white blood cell that is responsible for protecting the body from infections. These cells have a nucleus that is divided into several lobules, and they contain small neutrophil and azurophil granules that stain purple with Romanowsky dye.

Neutrophils can engulf and destroy bacteria, a process called phagocytosis. Normally, a healthy person can contain from 2 to 7.5 million neutrophils in one liter of blood. However, if the number of neutrophils in the blood increases, this may indicate infection or inflammation.

In addition, neutrophils are also involved in regulating the body's immune system and can contribute to the development of allergic reactions. Therefore, if you have problems with the number of neutrophils in your blood, you should see your doctor to diagnose the cause of this change and receive appropriate treatment.
