Peripheral blood mononuclear cell
From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history
Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells or PBMCs are types of white blood cells with a round nuclei, including lymphocytes, macrophages and monocytes, but not granulocytes (polymorphonuclear leucocytes like neutophils, eosinophils and basophils).[1][2]
PBMCs are less dense than granulocytes, and less dense than red blood cells.[3]
