what do we expect the levels of basophils to be ?
KH: The basophils should remain within the normal range, generally between 0% and 2%. For some clinicians, the absolute basophil count, which should fall between 0 to 0.3 k/ul represents the true clinical picture better than the percentage of basophils is that, in cases where blood counts are suppressed by therapy, the percentage of basophils will be higher when the overall counts are low. Some other clinicians, however, believe otherwise and simply rely on the $ basophil value.
