Leukocytes is another name for white blood cell. These formed elements fight infections and other "foreign" invaders. The formed elements of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes).
Leukocyte esterase is a urine test that searches white blood cells for abnormalities due in infections.
The only true cell among the formed elements of blood is the white blood cell (leukocyte). Red blood cells (erythrocytes) and platelets (thrombocytes) are not considered true cells because they lack a nucleus and other organelles.
