Monocyte Electron Micrograph

This electron micrograph illustrates the salient features of a circulating monocyte.

  • Ly - lysosomal granules variably density.
  • G - Golgi zone is small, but well developed; its external limits are demarcated by the dotted line.
  • Get - Rough-surfaced ER (rough endoplasmic reticulum), many channels of which are dilated by electron-opaque secretory material, is abundant.
  • M - Mitochondria are distributed randomly.
  • Ps - pseudopodia. A narrow but distinct zone of ectoplasm (Ect) rings the cell and continues into pseudopodia.
  • Th - thrombocytes.
