WHAT DOES SUPPURATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

suppuration

Pus

Pus is an exudate, typically white-yellow, yellow, or yellow-brown, formed at the site of inflammation during infection. An accumulation of pus in an enclosed tissue space is known as an abscess, whereas a visible collection of pus within or beneath the epidermis is known as a pustule or pimple. Pus consists of a thin, protein-rich fluid, known as liquor puris, and dead leukocytes from the body's immune response. During infection, macrophages release cytokines which trigger neutrophils to seek the site of infection by chemotaxis. There, the neutrophils engulf and destroy the bacteria and the bacteria resist the immune response by releasing toxins called leukocidins. As the neutrophils die off from toxins and old age, they are destroyed by macrophages, forming the viscous pus. Bacteria that cause pus are called suppurative, pyogenic, or purulent. If the agent also creates mucus, it is called mucopurulent. Despite normally being of a whitish-yellow hue, changes in the color of pus can be observed under certain circumstances.

Definition of suppuration in the English dictionary

The definition of suppuration in the dictionary is the discharging of pus from a wound, sore, etc. Other definition of suppuration is the discharge itself.
