Eosinophilic myelocytes
Eosinophilic myelocytes are the first definitive cell type in the eosinophilic lineage. At this stage, the cells begin to synthesize eosinophil-specific granules, which then come to predominate since azurophilic granules are no longer being produced. The nucleus of an eosinophilic myelocyte will develop a distinct indentation, at which point they become metamyelocytes. 1000x, 1000x
