injective

Examples of injective in the following topics:

• Intramuscular Injections

  • Intramuscular (or IM) injection is the injection of a substance directly into a muscle.
  • Intramuscular (or IM) injection is the injection of a substance directly into a muscle.
  • Also, when wanting to inject larger amounts of drugs, it is best to inject into the muscular region instead of injecting subcutaneously.
  • Platelet-rich plasma injections can be administered intramuscularly.
  • Ketamine) are injected intramuscularly for recreational purposes.

• Epidural Anesthesia

  • An epidural, or epidural anesthesia, is a form of regional anesthesia involving injection of drugs into the epidural space.
  • The term epidural is often short for epidural anesthesia, a form of regional anesthesia involving injection of drugs through a catheter placed into the epidural space.
  • The injection results in a loss of sensation—including the sensation of pain—by blocking the transmission of signals through nerves in or near the spinal cord.
  • The catheter is a fine plastic tube, through which anesthetics may be injected into the epidural space .
  • The needle for the epidural is injected between vertebra into the space outside the dura mater of the spinal cord.

• Dental Anesthesia

  • Lidocaine, a local anesthetic that is commonly used in dentistry, is injected directly into the nerve to block pain sensation in the mouth.
  • An injection of local anesthetic directly into this nerve blocks sensation.
  • The result is a temporary facial palsy (paralysis), with the injected side of the face drooping because of flaccid muscles, which disappears when the anesthesia wears off.
  • For this reason, the upper teeth are usually anesthetized locally by injecting lidociane beneath the oral mucosa surrounding the teeth.
  • A dentist injects a local anesthetic into the inferior alveolar nerve before extracting a tooth.

• Type III and Type IV Secretion

  • Type III secretion systems are characterized by the ability to inject a protein directly from the bacterial cell to the eukaryotic cell.
  • The mechanism by which AvrA is injected involves exact and proper assembly of proteins which promote invasion of the host cell.
  • The movement between neighboring cells and evading the immune system, enhances its ability to inject its secretory protein into the host cell.
  • The secretory molecule injected into the epithelial cells is an inflammation-inducing agent derived from their own cellular wall.
  • The type III secretion system is characterized by the ability to inject secretory molecules into the host eukaryotic cell.

• Infertility

  • If fertilization is not accomplished by simple IVF, a procedure known as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) can be used to inject the sperm into an egg .
  • A sperm is inserted into an egg for fertilization during intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

• Vaccine Safety

  • Vaccines carry risks, ranging from rashes or tenderness at the site of injection to fever-associated seizures.
  • Vaccines carry risks, ranging from rashes or tenderness at the site of injection to fever-associated seizures called febrile convulsions and dangerous infections in those with compromised immune systems.

• Artificial Immunity

  • Artificially-acquired passive immunity is an immediate, but short-term immunization provided by the injection of antibodies, such as gamma globulin, that are not produced by the recipient's cells.
  • These antibodies are developed in another individual or animal and then injected into another individual.
  • Artificial active immunization is where the microbe, or parts of it, are injected into the person before they are able to take it in naturally.
  • Artificial passive immunization is normally administered by injection and is used if there has been a recent outbreak of a particular disease or as an emergency treatment for toxicity, as in for tetanus.

• Introduction to Cooperative Networking

  • In the United States, a business that produces merchandise from wood enters into talks with a plastics injection firm to discuss recyclable packaging ideas.

• One-to-One Functions

  • A one-to-one function, also called an injective function, never maps distinct elements of its domain to the same element of its codomain.
  • A one-to-one function, also called an injective function, never maps distinct elements of its domain to the same element of its co-domain.
  • Occasionally, an injective function from $X$ to $Y$ is denoted $f: X \mapsto Y$, using an arrow with a barbed tail.

• Inverse Functions

  • For this rule to be applicable, for a function whose domain is the set $X$ and whose range is the set $Y$, each element $y \in Y$ must correspond to no more than one $x \in X$; a function $f$ with this property is called one-to-one, or information-preserving, or an injection.
  • Such a function is called non-injective or information-losing.
  • If the domain consists of the non-negative numbers, then the function is injective and invertible.
