Abstract
This research paper shows the detailed structure of white blood cells in a human body. The complete description includes the cell types, their functions and the importance of white blood cells in human body with the procedure of its calculation. How much amount of WBCs is required to the body and how to calculate them is a very important question. Hematology analyzer analyses the count of blood cells and its types in the human blood. Its usage and types are also discussed in this article. Another important aspect that has been covered in this article is the statically rate of the patients suffering from diseases that happens due to the deficiency of WBCs or due to the access about of WBCs in human blood. These patients are divided in three main categories of child, adult and old age patients. The microscopic images are found from different research laboratories for the better understanding of what happens to the cells when the amount of WBCs increases or decreases from the normal rage in different age groups of a human life.
