Basophil is a type of white blood cell. They are responsible for inflammatory reactions during immune response, as well as in the formation of acute and chronic allergic diseases. They can perform phagocytosis, produce histamine and serotonin that induce inflammation, and heparin that prevents blood clotting.

Eosinophils are a variety of white blood cells and one of the immune system components responsible for combating multicellular parasites and certain infections in vertebrates. They also control mechanisms associated with allergy and asthma.
