What's the difference between crystallize and granulate?

Crystallize


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To cause to form crystals, or to assume the crystalline form.
  • (v. i.) To be converted into a crystal; to take on a crystalline form, through the action of crystallogenic or cohesive attraction.

Granulate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To form into grains or small masses; as, to granulate powder, sugar, or metal.
  • (v. t.) To raise in granules or small asperities; to make rough on the surface.
  • (v. i.) To collect or be formed into grains; as, cane juice granulates into sugar.
  • (a.) Alt. of Granulated

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The patterns observed were: clusters of granules related to the cell membrane; positive staining localized to portions of the cell membrane, and, less commonly, the whole cell circumference.
  • (2) The extrusion of granules into the intercellular space via exocytosis is frequently observed.
  • (3) We have previously shown that serotonin is present in secretory granules of frog adrenochromaffin cells; concurrently, we have demonstrated that serotonin is a potent stimulator of corticosterone and aldosterone secretion by adrenocortical cells.
