Which type of white blood cell would you expect to be most common in a normal blood smear?
Neutrophils
My pap smear result says that there are a high number of epithelial cells and high white blood cells...why?
Epithelial cells are a normal finding in a pap smear; that's the stuff that is meant to be "smeared." White blood cells are a nonspecific indication of inflammation; to learn about possible reasons, you should discuss with your health care provider, who has information about other testing that was done.
Estimation of the percentage of each white blood cell type in a smear is called a?
differential leucocyte counting
What is blood smear?
A blood smear is a sample of blood that is spread thinly on a glass slide, stained, and examined under a microscope. It is used to evaluate the number, morphology, and size of different types of blood cells such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This test helps in diagnosing various blood disorders and infections.
What does numerous polys mean in a pap smear report?
"Numerous polys" in a Pap smear report refers to the presence of numerous polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), which are a type of white blood cell often associated with inflammation or infection. Their presence can indicate an inflammatory response, which may be due to various causes, such as infections or other underlying conditions. It is important for healthcare providers to consider this finding in the context of other results and the patient's clinical symptoms to determine the appropriate follow-up or treatment.
What would be observed in the blood smear of patient who has malaria?
sBoth thick and thin blood smears are taken from the finger tip of earlobe of malaria patient. This smear is kept in water to dissolve and remove the haemoglobin from the slide. The slide is stained and visualised under oil immersion lens to see the malaria parasites directly.

The concept of having a normal blood. Red blood cells as compared to the white blood cells are really more numerous. Normally, human blood contains about 3.6 to 6.2 x 1012/L red blood cells while while blood cells only reaches 5-10 x109/L.
What is the danger when white blood cell is normal?

What white blood cells is least numerous?

What are similarities between the human blood smear and the frog blood smear under microscope?
Numerous differences can be seen between frog blood and human blood. Perhaps the most obvious is the oval shape of the frog erythrocytes rather than the biconcave discs of human blood. Moreover, the frog erythrocytes have a nucleus (here stained blue) whilst human erythrocytes do not. There is less difference in size between the erythrocytes and leucocytes than in human blood. There are no platelets in frog blood.
