Hello.  I was watching a Youtube video on biochemistry and out of the blue the presenter threw out the word microcell without any explanation. I googled and found very little explanation though I saw many artlcles using the term.  This was pretty well the only explanation I saw:

 

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/microcell

 

• (biology) A simple cell consisting of a nucleus and protoplasm within a membrane

 

In my searching I found the term 'whole cell' and also 'micronucleotide' - but again not much in the way of explaining them or distinguishing them from each other.

 

Any clarification would be appreciated. 

 

 

 

 

A microcell is the simplest form of cell with just the nucleus and protoplasmic materials

Thank your for your information this is helpful to me.
