Summary
| Description |
English: Male gametocyte in the upper left cell stains with more pink (Giemsa staining) than the female parasite in the lower left, which is more blue in color. Rock Pigeon red blood cells are nucleated, stained dark purple in this photograph. Also depicted is a thrombocyte, the avian equivalent of a platelet cell with clear/no staining around its nucleus. DNA stains more pink and protein stains more blue using Giemsa stain (hence, the male parasite, which will exflagellate upon uptake by a blood feeding Pseudolynchia canariensis louse fly vector) is more pink and the female "egg like" parasite contains more protein and is more blue. Photo taken using bright field light at 1000x total magnification (100x lens, oil immersion). |
