Abstract
POLYMORPHONUCLEAR leukocytes were discovered by Paul Ehrlich,[1][1] when fixation and staining techniques made it possible to identify the lobulated nucleus and the granules that have given name to these cells and allowed for their classification as eosinophils, basophils, and neutrophils.
