AGGLUTINATION, among physicians, implies the action of reuniting the parts of a body, separated by a wound, cut, &c. It is also applied to the action of such internal medicines as are of an agglutinating quality, and which, by giving a glutinous consistence to the animal-fluids, render them more proper for nourishing the body.
