WBC refers to the white blood cell count. A WBC of 15.4 can show that you are suffering from some sort of infection. Some medications like prednisone can also elevate your WBC.
low wbc is leukocytopenia,bone marrow diesease.
low wbc = low "white bloodcell count". These "leucocytes" are a part of the immunesystem
World boxing championship Or in terms of human physiology WBC stands for White Blood Cell.
There are five types of white blood cells (Leukocytes) Such as: 1. Neutrophils ( 54-62% of white blood cells) This WBC type is the first to arrive on site of an infection to ingest bacteria, virus particles, and fungi. 2. Eosinophils (about 3% of WBC) They keep control of allergy reactions and fight against parasitic worm infestations. 3. Basophils (less than 1% of WBC) They promote blood flow and inflammation by releasing their granules that consist of histamine/ heparin into the damanged tissue. 4. Monocytes ( 2-8% of WBC) Some of them develope into macrophages that phagocytose bacteria and debris in the tissue. 5. Lymphocytes (25-33% of the WBC) They are our important immunity cells
That is a very good question! You normally have high white blood cell count in bacterial infections. This rise in count is there to to promote the phagocytosis by white blood cells. But you have low WBC count in viral fevers, in rickettsial infections, in chlamydia infections, in malaria and in typhoid fever. They are all the intracellular infection. So rise in WBC can not help to kill the microorganisms by phagocytosis.
is wbc of 20.3 high
wht happens if WBC increases?
