Blood: Monocyte
Monocytes are large agranulocytes with a nucleus that is usually horseshoe shaped and eccentrically located. The cytoplasm is abundant, blue-grey and grainy. Monocytes only become active after they migrate into the connective tissues, where they differentiate into phagocytic cells, such as macrophages, osteoclasts and Kupffer cells. 1000x
