Basophils: Basophils are approximately the same size as neutrophils and eosinophils, but have large, strongly basophilic-specific granules that usually
obstruct the appearance of the nucleus having two or three irregular lobes. (A and B): ×1500, Wright. (C) ×1500, Giemsa. (D) TEM of a sectioned
basophil reveals the lobulated nucleus (N), appearing as three separated portions, the large specific basophilic granules (B), mitochondria (M), and Golgi
complex (G). Basophils exert many activities modulating the immune response and inflammation and share many functions with mast cells, which are
normal, longer term residents of connective tissue. ×16,000. Source: Mescher AL, Junqueira's Basic Histology text and Atlas 12th ed. McGraw Hill Lange
