What's the difference between detector and transmitter?

Detector


Definition:

  • (n.) One who, or that which, detects; a detecter.

  • (15) Three groups of facts are compared in this study: the significant adaptive and adaptational modification of the receptive fields of neurons of the visual cortex of the cat, the conditioned, selective, subsensory change in the threshold of perception (detection and recognition) by an individual of a letter in relation to two control letters, and the role of spatially-specialized cortical inhibition in the formation and adaptive modifications of the receptive fields and detector properties of neurons of the visual cortex.
  • (16) An inexpensive, easy-to-use detector for measuring airborne 222Rn based on 222Rn diffusion and absorption in activated charcoal is presented.

  • (19) SCADAR requires the acquisition of two digital images, taken at different object-to-detector distances.
  • (20) It has been found that the UV radiation-induced extreme state of the cells in a radiant culture produces distantly in an intact detector culture, which has only an optic contact with it, the cytopathic effect (CPE) as a repercussion of a specificity of morphological manifestations imprinted in the affected culture.

Transmitter


Definition:

  • (n.) One who, or that which, transmits; specifically, that portion of a telegraphic or telephonic instrument by means of which a message is sent; -- opposed to receiver.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate release from the treated side was higher than the control value during the first 2-3 h, a result indicating an important role of glial cells in the inactivation of released transmitter.
  • (2) In contrast, the effects of deltamethrin and cypermethrin promote transmitter release by a Na+ dependent process.
  • (3) Media made hyperosmotic with sucrose increase the frequency of spontaneously released quanta of transmitter, or miniature excitatory postsynaptic potentials (MEPSPs).

  • (9) It is concluded that catechol potentiates excitatory transmission at the LOT-superficial pyramidal cell synapse, possibly by increasing evoked transmitter release.
  • (10) These include the transmitter at intraganglionic synapses, transmitters of the pair of inhibitory and the two pairs of acceleratory fibers, and neurohormones released from the pericardial organs.
  • (11) Today's identification of four types and various sub-types of 5-HT receptors has revealed the extraordinary eclecticism of this transmitter which within migraine's clinical expression underscores that migraine sufferers are characterized by a marked sensitivity to all the drugs capable of acutely or chronically interacting with serotonin metabolism and binding with many serotonin receptor types and sub-types.
