Most likely there will be some type of inflammation present. Typically an allergy or infection. They release histamine and have anticoagulant heparin to help contribute to the inflammation process and promote blood flow to the affected area.

Of the granulocytes phagocytosis is characteristic of the neutrophil and the?

Neutrophils are the only granulocytes that phagocytize bacteria. (Granuloctyes include neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils.) Eosinophils do NOT phagocytize (eat); they kill parasidic worms by releasing enzymes and chemicals that create holes in the cells' membranes. Two types of agranulocytes are lymphocytes and monocytes. Monocytes function in phagocytosis. Also, monocytes turn into macrophages in tissues.

What is the full form of GRAN in haemogram test?

GRAN stands for Granulocytes, which is a part of the WBCs. There are 5 types of WBCs (Differential Count): Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils. A collective count of Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils are together called Granulocytes. In the less advanced cell counters, ie. the 3 Part Differential Cell Counters, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes and Granulocytes are counted whereas in 5 Part Differential Cell counters, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils are counted separately and more accurately.
