This stimulation produced an increase in the percentage of young neutrophiles which was relative and absolute.According to Arneth,2the neutrophiles in the peripheral blood can be differentiated. He described several classes which are based on the theory of the successive development of a greater segmentation of the nucleus with age. Cooke and Ponder3have simplified this classification by establishing five major groups or types; the first being the youngest, and...Bibliography1.
