basophil

Having an affinity for alkali. The term is used conveniently to refer to the group of blood white cells (leukocytes) whose internal granules take up an alkaline stain. The granules in basophils are mainly histamine and it is the release of this powerful chemical that causes most of the trouble in allergy. Basophils closely resemble tissue MAST CELLS.
