Figure 145. Granular cylindroid (500x)

Figure 146. Hyaline cylindroid. Note the tapering tail (160x).

Figure 147. Fine granular cast and yeast (400x).

Figure 148. Bacteria. This field contains rods, cocci, and chains (500x)

Figure 149. Yeast, WBCs, rare RBC, and bacteria (500x).

Figure 150. Yeast (1000x)

Figure 151. SM-stained yeast with pseudohyphae and WBCs (200x).

Figure 152. Yeast under phase contrast microscopy (400x)

Figure 153. Pinworm ovum and WBCs (100x).

Figure 154. Enterobius vermicularis or pinworm ovum (400x)

Figure 155. Tail of the adult female pinworm. The tail of the female is straight and
very pointed, whereas the tail of the male is curved (40x)

Figure 156. Pinworm ovum and WBCs (500x)

Figure 157. Schistosoma haematobium ovum under interference contrast microscopy.

Figure 158. Trichomonas vaginalis with mixed cellular background viewed
under phase contrast microscopy

Figure 159. Sperm and epithelial cells (500x).

Figure 160. SM-stained sperm

Figure 161. Mucus.

Figure 162. Mucus containing WBCs and RBCs (200x)

Figure 163. Fat droplets and epithelial cells (160x).

Figure 164. Oval fat body, granular cast, and amorphous urates. The oval fat body contains only a few fat droplets, thus, having a smaller size than other fat bodies (500x)

Figure 165. Oval fat body (400x).

Figure 166. Oval fat body. The cell is bulging with fat droplets,
so the cell membrane is not visible (500x).

Figure 167. Oval fat bodies and WBCs (500x).

Figure 168. Oval fat body. This field also contains a cell with a
few small fat droplets in it (arrow) (400x)

Figure 169. Oval fat body. Note the various sized droplets (400x).

Figure 170. Oval fat body (400x).

Figure 171. Sudan III–stained fat droplets.

Figure 172. Starch granules (200x)

Figure 173. Starch crystals. The indentation in the center of each crystal
is very distinguishable (500 )

Figure 174. Starch granules.

Figure 175. Starch crystals under polarized light demonstrating
 the typical “Maltese-cross” formation (400x)

Figure 176. Talcum powder particles and a few squamous epithelial cells (160x)

Figure 177. Debris from a diaper. The piece of debris in the center of the field is a common contaminant (400 ).

Figure 178. A. Fine granular cast and WBCs. Note the detail of the cast. B. Fiber. Note the dark edges and the difference in texture between this piece of debris and the cast in (A) (200x)

Figure 178. Continued

Figure 179. Fiber. Note the dark edges (400x).

Figure 180. Fiber. This fiber could be confused with a waxy cast, but the structure is determined to be flat because of the part of the fiber that is turned on its side (400x)

Figure 181. Fiber. Note the thick rolled edges of this fiber (400x)

Figure 182. Debris from a diaper. This squeezed-out specimen was worthless for microscopic analysis. Note the various types of fibers present (200x)

Figure 183. Fibers. The striations (seen only under low-power magnification) and dark edges are characteristics of these fibers (400x)

Figure 184. Fibers. These are the same fibers as in the previous figure. Note the indentations in the surface of the center fiber (400x)

Figure 185. Fiber. Note the nodular indentations and nodular end of this very common contaminant (400x)

Figure 186. Fibers. The center fiber shows a thick nodular border (500x)

Figure 187. Fiber, calcium oxalate crystals, and amorphous urates.
Note the nodular ends on the fiber (400x)

Figure 188. Fiber. This is the same field as in the previous figure but on a different focal plane. Changing the focus brings out the nodular indentations on the side of the fiber (400x).

Figure 189. Air bubbles, phosphate plate, and amorphous phosphates. Air bubbles can assume a variety of shapes, especially if the coverslip is moved or depressed (200x).
