chromatin-dense nuclei
Explanation:
Looks like a typo, should be "kromatintäta cellkärnor".

You could rewrite e.g. "...usually spool-shaped/fusiform nuclei with high chromatin density".

agree  Cynthia Coan: Yeah, I also wondered why the term wasn't " kromatintäta" instead of "kromintäta." The corrected word makes a lot more sense.
