What's the difference between crystallize and trimorph?

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.

Example Sentences:

  • (11) The molecular structure of the hexagonal crystal form of porcine pepsin (EC 3.4.23.1), an aspartic proteinase from the gastric mucosa, has been determined by molecular replacement using the fungal enzyme, penicillopepsin (EC 3.4.23.6), as the search model.

Trimorph


Definition:

  • (n.) A substance which crystallizes in three distinct forms, or which has three distinct physical states; also, any one of these distinct forms. See Trimorphism, 1.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Plurihormonal adenomas may be ultrastructurally monomorphous, bimorphous, or trimorphous; thus, one morphologic cell type may elaborate several hormones.
  • (2) This is most likely the result of a genetic polymorphism manifested by 1) the inability of the monocyte 40-kDa IgG FcR of some individuals to bind murine IgG1, and 2) a distinctive trimorphic pattern on IEF of the monocyte 40-kDa FcR, one form being seen in all individuals who do not respond and another form (or a combination of both forms) being seen in those who do respond.
