Annulocytes (very mild [down from medium]) Annulocytes are also known as 'target cells' due to their characteristic inner ring, which indicates that the cells are not fully inflated. This is typically due to a lack of haemoglobin inside the cell, which my be caused by nutrient insufficiency. A mild annulocyte-like appearance may occur with dehydration.
Platelet Aggregation (medium [stable at medium) Platelets are responsible for blood clotting. Various lifestyle choices (such as smoking or eating fatty foods) and disease states may make platelets stickier, resulting in platelet aggregations. Large aggregations can be a sign of an increased tendency to blood clotting.
Fibrin Clusters (mild [down from medium])Clusters of Fibrin, resembling small spider's webs (observed within 10 minutes) indicate that your body may be experiencing inflammation. Fibrin may also indicate liver stress, which can be caused by dietary or lifestyle factors.
Protein Linkage (No Grade)
Some of your red blood cells are linked together by strands of sticky proteins, produced when the body is experiencing inflammation. This can give the red blood cells a tear-drop appearance and they can form long chains. This inflammation can be associated with infection, allergy, toxcity, poor digestion or unhealthy dietary choices.
