What's the difference between perfuse and suffuse?

Perfuse


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To suffuse; to fill full or to excess.

Example Sentences:

Suffuse


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To overspread, as with a fluid or tincture; to fill or cover, as with something fluid; as, eyes suffused with tears; cheeks suffused with blushes.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Alkalosis of the Hepes suffusate shortened the AP; but equivalent alkalosis of the K-R suffusate prolonged the AP as did a reduction of [CaCl2] in Hepes suffusate from 3.0 to 1.5 mM at pH 7.43.
