Relating to or containing blood, or describing something that resembles blood in color or consistency.
From Greek haima (blood) + -ose (full of or containing). This is an archaic or rare descriptive term from older medical and biological literature.
Some old medical terms like 'hematose' fell out of use because modern medicine developed more specific, precise terminology—but they survived in historical medical texts and show how language changes over time.
