What's the difference between globule and globuliferous?
Globule
Definition:
(n.) A little globe; a small particle of matter, of a spherical form.
(n.) A minute spherical or rounded structure; as blood, lymph, and pus corpuscles, minute fungi, spores, etc.
(n.) A little pill or pellet used by homeopathists.
Example Sentences:

(3) A large portion of the N-terminal globule of human collagen VI was prepared from the culture medium of stably transfected human embryonic kidney cell clones.
(4) Ultrastructurally, the globules measured 0.5-1.5 mu in diameter and they were usually not membrane bound.
(5) Calcification initially occurs in maxtrix vesicles (or calcifying globules) which are very numerous between the collagen fibrils of the osteoid tissue, and successively spreads into the surrounding interfibrillar matrix.
(6) This early rejection was associated with local appearance of globule leucocytes and increased concentration of T. colubriformis-specific IgG1 and IgG2 in intestinal mucus.
(7) Eosinophilic globules were found in 17% of the 34 nevi, and congenital features in 8.8%.
(8) In some areas, the tumor shows a striking resemblance to Kaposi's sarcoma; criss-crossing fascicles of spindle cells are interspersed with narrow vascular spaces, but PAS-positive hyaline globules are absent.
(9) Kamino's eosinophilic globules could be considered another important sign for the differential diagnosis between pigmented spindle cell nevus and malignant melanoma.

Globuliferous
Definition:
(a.) Bearing globules; in geology, used of rocks, and denoting a variety of concretionary structure, where the concretions are isolated globules and evenly distributed through the texture of the rock.
