Description
This slide features a thin smear of human blood, stained with H&E to enhance contrast between cell types. Under the microscope, students can observe: - Erythrocytes (red blood cells): Numerous, biconcave, anucleate cells - Leukocytes (white blood cells): Larger, nucleated cells with visible granules or lobes - Platelets (thrombocytes): Small, irregular fragments involved in clotting The H&E stain provides excellent differentiation of cellular components, making this slide ideal for studying blood morphology and hematologic function.
