- curdling: the process of forming semisolid lumps in a liquid
- (coagulate) clot: change from a liquid to a thickened or solid state; "coagulated blood"
- (coagulated) coagulate: transformed from a liquid into a soft semisolid or solid mass; "coagulated blood"; "curdled milk"; "grumous blood"
- Curds are a dairy product obtained by curdling (coagulating) milk with rennet or an edible acidic substance such as lemon juice or vinegar, and then draining off the liquid portion (called whey). ...
- The precipitation of suspended particles as they increase in size (by any of several physical or chemical processes); The process by which blood forms solid clots; Similar solidification of other materials (e.g. of tofu)
- (coagulate) A mass formed by means of coagulation; To become congealed; to convert from a liquid to a semisolid mass; To cause to congeal
- (coagulated) Subject to coagulation
- (Coagulate) Firming or clumping of proteins after heating.
- (coagulate) This is when a substance thickens and congeals.
- The conversion of liquid (blood) into a somewhat solid plug that can prevent further bleeding from a particular site.
- The process in which very small, finely divided solid particles, often colloidal in nature, are agglomerated into larger particles.
- A process of thickening milk into a custard-like gel by introducing acid or rennet to milk. Coagulant enzymes can be from plant, animal or laboratory sources.
- When you destroy a colloid by letting the particles settle out.
- The process of forming a blood clot.
- The solidification into a gelatinous mass, an alteration of a disperse phase or of a dissolved solid, which causes the separation of the system into a liquid phase and an insoluble mass called the clot or curd. Coagulation is usually irreversible.
- The chemical bringing together of fine particles of sediment in water.
- A method of destroying endometrial lesions by dehydrating the cells with a bipolar or thermal coagulator.
- The process by which a liquid changes into a thickened, curd-like, insoluble state as it undergoes a chemical reaction.
- The process, such as in treatment of drinking water, by which dirt and other suspended particles become chemically ?stuck together? so they can be removed from water.
- Water treatment process in which chemicals are added to water that enables them to become attached to each other.
- Coagulation or flocculation describes the chemical process of contact and adhesion whereby particles of a dispersion (colloids) form larger-size clusters (flocs or flakes) allowing them to be more easily removed from water (e.g. by settling). See also coagulant. Synonyms: Agglomeration, Flocculation
- A step in cheese manufacture when milk’s protein, casein, is clotted by the action of rennet or acids.
- The aggregation of protein macromolecules into clumps or aggregates of semi-solid material.
- nbsp A clumping of particles in water and wastewater to settle out impurities; it is often induced by chemicals such as lime, alum, and iron salts.
- What happens when milk solidifies and curds form.
