What's the difference between emit and immit?

Emit


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To send forth; to throw or give out; to cause to issue; to give vent to; to eject; to discharge; as, fire emits heat and smoke; boiling water emits steam; the sun emits light.
  • (v. t.) To issue forth, as an order or decree; to print and send into circulation, as notes or bills of credit.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The relative strength of the progressions varies with excitation wavelength and this, together with the absence of a common origin, indicates the existence of two independent emitting states with 0-0' levels separated by either 300 or 1000 cm-1.

  • (6) The vocalight lights up a variable number of light-emitting diodes depending upon the loudness of sounds received at a hydrophone within the suction cup.
  • (7) Kinetic analysis of residue and outflow curves of gamma-emitting indicators such as chromium-51-EDTA and iodide-131-thalamate from skeletal muscle gives the possibility to determine the extraction fraction and the plasma flow, and from these two values the capillary diffusion capacity can be calculated (Sejrsen 1970, preliminary report).
  • (8) Excellent correlation between EMIT and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been previously established.
  • (9) The results indicate that behavior in transition states maintained by reinforcement contingencies in the radial maze is similar to that maintained by extended chained schedules, despite the fact that some of the stimuli controlling behavior in the maze are absent at the moment behavior is emitted.
  • (10) The accuracy of two modified enzyme immunoassay (EMIT) methods using reduced sample and reagent volumes for determining serum tobramycin concentrations was compared with that of the standard method.
  • (11) Urine specimens from 93 selected subjects were run by fluorescence polarization immunoassay on the Abbott TDx; by enzyme multiplied immunoassay with two Syva EMIT assays; and by thin-layer chromatography with the TOXI-LAB system (Marion Laboratories).
  • (12) We have isolated a mutant of the luminous bacterium Beneckea harveyi, which requires exogenous adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) to synthesize luciferase and emit light.
  • (13) Comparisons of homogeneous enzyme multiplied immunoassay technique (EMIT) and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed that the EMIT slightly over-estimated plasma carbamazepine levels due to immunochemical cross reactivity with the epoxide metabolite.
  • (14) A homogeneous enzyme immunoassay (EMIT) for serum thyroxine determination has been evaluated.
  • (15) She ushers us into the kitchen, where a large metal pot simmering on the hotplate emits a spicy aroma.
  • (16) UMLBs (n = 14) had no spontaneous activity and emitted bursts of action potentials that preceded rapid eye movements by approximately 6 ms. Parameters of the burst (duration and number of spikes) were highly correlated with parameters of the rapid eye movement (duration and amplitude of the upward displacement of the eyes).
  • (17) However, Teryn Norris and Jesse Jenkins, of the Breakthrough Institute , argue that as the recession has deepened, Obama has been relatively silent on cap and trade emissions schemes similar to the one operating in Europe in which companies can trade permits to emit carbon dioxide.
  • (18) Sensitive cocultivation techniques were applied to study the radiation-induced activation of endogenous retroviral genomes in different mouse strains by the alpha-emitting radionuclide 224Radium.
  • (19) Eigenmannia is a weakly electric fish that emits a constant-frequency electric organ discharge (EOD).
  • (20) The EMIT assay was found reliable in therapeutic drug monitoring.

Immit


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To send in; to inject; to infuse; -- the correlative of emit.

Example Sentences:

  • (5) Audiometric evaluation consisting of a well masked pure tone audiogram, speech discrimination score and immitance studies.
  • (6) Acoustic-immitance measurements obtain sophisticated data that give us valuable information about the middle ear mechanism as a whole.
  • (7) A psychogenic movement disorder can immitate sometimes a choreatic syndrom.
  • (8) Immitance audiometry is a safe, simple, reliable, and relatively objective method of determining middle-ear function that provides advantages for examining the difficult patient because minimal cooperation is needed.
  • (9) Immitance audiometry can confirm a doubtful otoscopic diagnosis and screen for ear disease.
  • (10) This is done indirectly through the plot of induced pressure versus acoustic immitance (tympanogram).
  • (11) During hospitalization, both pathologic findings from a submandibular lymph node and a scratching smear of the skin lesion contained Coccidioides immites.
