[Submicroscopic formations of an unknown nature in the eosinophils of the blood of dogs].
The authors describe ultrastructure in dog blood eosinophils, unknown formerly. These formations look like dumb-bells or rods, 0,003-0,005 micron in length. A double-contour membrane is distinct under high magnification. The structures contain a homogeneous matrix, more electron-dense than the matrix of the cytoplasm itself. They are distributed mostly in groups (3-4), in parallel, at a small distance from one another; sometimes they are scattered singly at the periphery of the cytoplasm. Several suggestions were made on the role of the mentioned structures in the eosinophilic leukocyte function.
