Question

given the following count, complete the following tables

c. Activity 3 -Conducting a Differential WBC count (pg 431) Given the following count, complete the table: Blood Sample # of cells | total Normal BloodSample (from book) Function Neutrophils 1 2915, %of total Eosinophils Basophils 1/50 0/50 Lymphocytes 15/50 5/50 Monocytes On the following representation of a microscope slide, indicate the pattern user to complete a differential WBC count: Describe the purpose of a differential WBC count: D. Given the following differential leukocyte count on the unknown blood sample Indicate what "normal" % would be and then analyze the results. i.e., make a diagnosis. Normal Unknown Sample % 40 15 Neutrophils Eosinophils Basophils Lymphocytes 30 14 How is this sample different than a normal sample? Diagnosis of this sample- Biol 2022

Explanation / Answer

C.Normal percent of blood sample - Neutrophils -40-60% Kill and digest bacteria, fungi and virus. They are first line of defense.

Lymphocytes - 20 - 40% Create antibodies to defend bacteria and viruses.

Monocytes - 2 - 8% Longer life span and help to break down bacteria.

Eosinophils -1 - 4% Attack parasites and kill them, destroy cancer cells and help with allergic responses.

Basophils -0.5 - 1% Secrete histamine, marker of allergic diseases.

Pattern of WBC - Manual and automated pattern.

The purpose of differential WBC count is - 1. Measures the number of WBC in your blood.

2. Determines the percentage of each type of WBC.

3. Detect immature WBC's and abnormalities, which are signs of emergency issues.

4. Detects infection, inflammation, leukemia or immune system disorders.

D. Normal range

Neutrophils - 40-60%

Eosinophils - 1-4%

Basophils - 0.5 - 1%

Lymphocytes -20 - 40%

Monocytes -2 - 8%

Sample indicates an increase in eosinophils and monocytes.

It is seen in Rheumatoid arthritis and also after smoking cessation in smokers.
