By means of histochemical methods it could be shown, that the human blood contains three different types of cells with phenoloxidase. The phenoloxidase activity of the large cells is methanol resistant. The cells are considered to be hematopoietic stem cells. The medium size cells are granulocytes, while the small cells are lymphocytes.
