Monocyte

  • slightly larger than granulocytes (about 12-18 µm in diameter).
  • cytoplasm stains usually stronger than that of granulocytes.
  • does not contain any structures which would be visible in the light microscope using most traditional stains (a few very fine bluish gains may be visible in some monocytes).
  • has a C-shaped nucleus.
  • granules (visible in the EM) correspond to the primary granules of neutrophils (lysosomes).
