uncored

Center not removed

Uncored describes something that has not had its core removed.

Most often applied to fruit: uncored apples still contain their seeds and tough center.

The term also appears in technical contexts—an uncored casting lacks internal hollow spaces, or uncored samples haven't had cylindrical sections extracted for analysis.
