serum
Clear blood component
Serum is the clear, yellowish fluid that remains after blood has clotted and the cells are removed.
In medicine, serum from immunized animals or recovered patients contains antibodies and can be used therapeutically: antivenom serum, immune serum.
The term extends to any watery biological fluid.
In skincare, a serum is a lightweight, concentrated liquid applied before moisturizer: vitamin C serum.
