bloodspot
Tiny crimson dot
A bloodspot is a small spot or stain of blood, or a small area of bleeding visible through tissue.
In eggs, a bloodspot is a tiny red or brown speck on the yolk—harmless but sometimes considered unappetizing: She discarded the egg when she noticed a bloodspot.
Medical bloodspot tests collect drops of blood on filter paper for screening, especially in newborns.
