corpuscle

This is an expression which indicates the amount of hemoglobin in each red corpuscle compared with the normal amount.

The degree of pallor furnishes a rough index to the amount of hemoglobin in the corpuscle.

A single platelet lying upon a red corpuscle may easily be mistaken for a malarial parasite (Plate VI).

The organism is an actively motile spiral thread, about four times the diameter of a red corpuscle in length.

Soon, dark-brown granules derived from the hemoglobin of the corpuscle make their appearance within it.
