What's the difference between coralline and coralloid?

Coralline


Definition:

  • (a.) Composed of corallines; as, coralline limestone.
  • (n.) A submarine, semicalcareous or calcareous plant, consisting of many jointed branches.
  • (n.) Formerly any slender coral-like animal; -- sometimes applied more particulary to bryozoan corals.

  • (15) These results strongly support the use of coralline PBHA along with bone plate fixation to provide predictable stability in orthognathic surgery.
  • (16) Evolving radiographic findings reflect the biocompatible nature of these implants, which provides the potential for ingrowth of native bone with preservation of the coralline scaffold, resulting in enhanced biomechanical properties.
  • (17) Porous coralline and synthetic hydroxyapatite blocks reinforced with either self-reinforced polyactide or polyglycolide were implanted into 15 lumbar intervertebral disc spaces in five minipigs in order to determine whether they could provide an osteoconductive bridge for interbody fusion.

  • (19) Coralline hydroxylapatite is a highly biocompatible material which showed abundant ingrowth when in contact with host bone.
  • (20) In contrast, the coralline implant was consistently invaded by fibrovascular tissue, showed bone formation on its internal surfaces and had some periodontal ligament formation around it.

Coralloid


Definition:

  • (a.) Having the form of coral; branching like coral.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Myxococcus coralloides D produced cell-bound deoxyribonucleases (DNases) during the exponential phase of growth in liquid medium.

  • (9) On the other hand, a similar comparison of cyanobacteria freshly collected from a single Encephalartos altensteinii coralloid root and from three independently subcultured isolates from the same coralloid root revealed that these were likely to be one and the same organism.
  • (10) The effect of inorganic phosphate concentrations on antibiotic and extracellular protein production by Myxococcus coralloides D have been examined.
