Best video ever , I passed both A&p 1 and 2 last year and still didn't gain as clear if an understanding of the distinctions of white blood cells as you've cleary explained. Thank you.
Could not have asked for a better video, Truly thank you This video was just perfect and answered all the questions i had when it came to distinguishing between white blood cells Super helpful and concise, Keep up the great work and hope you have a great day
I’m from Greece!I study medicine and I’ve recently came across your videos.They are extremely helpful and detailed.Thank you very much for all the amazing work you have done!
This is a fantastic video! I just started human A&P 2 and my first lab is the cardiovasular system. This is really helping me tell the different WBCs apart! Thank you for this!
Thanks so much for explaining, also for people wondering, my biology teacher said that the names of granulocytes (Neutrophills, Basophills and Eoisophills) are based of of the specific coloring chemical types which have the ability to color these cells under a microscope
Correct! The wright stain is made of eosin and methylene blue...the eosinophils pick up the acidic eosin, the basophils pick up the basic methylene blue..and the neutrophils don't pick up much of either and are therefore neutral!
Glad it helped! If you want practice questions this updated version has a bunch at the end: ua-cam.com/video/0ZIqDCjbQw8/v-deo.html Good luck in your studies!
Glad to help! Here's the playlist with the rest of my histology videos.. ua-cam.com/play/PLBM7jL93Kc2Ro6cMPxNpRxHf3m0lh-1oa.html I recently made a new one for leukocytes that has practice questions! You can find it on that playlist.
It's great to hear that! Histology is one of my favorite topics! Here's a playlist with my other histology videos in case you might need them: ua-cam.com/play/PLBM7jL93Kc2Ro6cMPxNpRxHf3m0lh-1oa.html
Might be a dumb question; but whenever i look at blood, the color usually gets pretty washed away and its impossible to see any color other then the orangey color of what i assume is plasma. Is there anything i would be doing wrong? should i be doing a wet mount or a dry mount?
So, I don't have a lot of experience actually preparing slides but the colors you are seeing here are not natural. It's likely an h&e stain or wrights stain (which is methylene blue + eosin). If you Google "how to prepare a blood slide with wrights stain" I bet you could find a protocol you could follow!
This is very true! This is what I've seen in my experience but different staining procedures could lead to different results. Also the age of the slide can be a factor. For the most part with histology I say to ignore color... But with the granulocytes comparing the darkness to an RBC is generally helpful. If you are just looking at developed white blood cells (and not their intermediate stages) my suggestion would be to pay attention to the size shape and number of the nuclei as well as the size of the overall cell.
@@AnatomyHero I am teaching myself all about Blood. As I have found out, only about 25% looks like text book cells. All of the other WBC are in different stages of development. For me personally, I like the H&E Stains for blood. I like the Blue WBC better than the purple, such as what Wrights stain produces. I am constantly looking for a better Morphology chart for Blood Cells. University of Minnesota has a pretty good one.
Interesting! For any reason in particular or are you just interested? We don't have any bone marrow smears in our collection so I've never really taken the time to get good with immature white blood cells... I sort of wish we did because it would be fun to try and teach myself in my down time. There's lots of pictures on the internet but sitting down with a scope is more fun.
@@AnatomyHero As a kid I had a really cheap $10 dollar microscope. I did however, wear it out so to speak. Then life happened. As a kid I was teaching myself to be a doctor. We didn't have money for me to go to College so I checked out numerous books at a library. While in Highschool, I found out I was Very good at Electronics and was thrown into the military and worked on the F111D bombers. After that I spent over 27 years working for Xerox as a service engineer. Then opened up a computer repair shop. Computers dried up, so I retired a few years ago, so I saved up and purchased a Amscope T490B with extras. I have always been interested in science and other micro life forms. So I am taking back off where I left off as a kid. Pond and Sea life is also a lot of Fun!
That's really awesome!! I love meeting people who are interested in science just for it's own sake. I'm actually also really interested in freshwater ecology...I never focused too much on the microscopic aspects...but I do think diatoms are the coolest. There is actually a guy that arranges them into kaleidoscope type formations.
Love your video like alot of everyone else, very interested as right now as my WBC is 16 and maximum is 11, and lymphocytes 8.9 and maximum is 4.0 and monocytes is 1.4 and maximum is 1.0 . So with your experience should I be worried as who ever is scanning my blood isn't raising any red flags when entering my results to my manage my health account and my doctor is returning next week after 2 months away so you American doctors rock as I'm from New Zealand KIWI and anxious,💐💐💐
Although I know how to identify white blood cells, I'm not a doctor...and I don't actually have any specific training regarding interpreting lab results. I'm glad your doctor is returning next week so you can ask them directly...but in the mean time try not to be too worried. Sometimes values outside the reference ranges arent indicative of a disease process (once again, I'm just speaking generally...I have no experience with these lab values specifically) Also elevated white blood cells could just be from something relatively benign, like a minor infection. Definitely call your doctor's office about it next week if you're concerned but do your best to put it out of your mind for now!
Here is my full playlist related to the blood/heart! ua-cam.com/play/PLBM7jL93Kc2TLudKbM8FsWm9mB2PtOIls.html I have a video about blood typing but I don't know if its as helpful as this one! I might make a new one someday!
Do you mean the regulation of it, meaning, how the kidneys trigger with erythropoeisis using erythropoietin.. or do you mean the steps of a hemocytoblast turning into a myeloid stem cell and then a proerythroblast etc etc?

Hi, I've just put some saliva under the microscope and found some spherical structures that are filled with tinny things that are moving/vibrating . The structures are transparent. They may have a something like a nucleus, it is not easy distinguishable, but if I squint enough something seems to be there (but only one, not two or three). Are those leukocytes ? If yes of which type ? Are the tinny things that are moving\vibrating captive bacteria ?
It's so hard to say without being able to see what you're looking at! Unfortunately, I'm not too familiar with what you would find in saliva! It could be any number of things... I did a quick Google and found a person looking at different things from their saliva under the microscope. Perhaps you can compare to those kinds of videos! let me know if you find out anything interesting
@Anatomy Hero I think I've saw the same video and that person refers to those things as being white blood cells. Link : ua-cam.com/video/yUXDBhLlLpg/v-deo.html At 1:40 you can see it in the right half of the screen.
I may be WAY out of my depth (I've not had ANY training in differential diagnoses of blood disorders) but is there more information available? Wouldn't high lymphocytes in conjunction with eosinophilia be a better indicator of possible leukemia? I didn't think anything could be determined just from looking at the reactive lymphocyte count.

thankyou soo much..i'm not medical student about i required to learn about the WBC for my research work....its completely understandable ...
Im glad to help!! If you have any questions, please ask!
This is a really nice video, however, I'd like to point out that agranulocytes DO have granules but are not visible under a light microscope.
True! I believe you would need an electron microscope to see them.
