Eosinophils are immune cells that migrate from blood into connective tissue. They are involved in many inflammatory processes, including parasitic infections, allergic diseases, and asthma.
Eosinophils are easily recognized by their distinctive granules.
Nucleus (blue) / Nuclear Envelope (purple) - usually eccentric and bilobed
Crystalloid Granules (orange) - large granules (0.5 to 1.5 µm in diameter) that are usually ellipsoid with a linear, crystalline core.
