What's the difference between gassing and noxious?

Gassing


Definition:

  • (n.) The process of passing cotton goods between two rollers and exposing them to numerous minute jets of gas to burn off the small fibers; any similar process of singeing.

  • (19) The relation between the increase in galactose efflux with insulin and the insulin concentration conforms to the Michaelis-Menten equation, for perfusates prepared both with and without CO(2) gassing, indicating in the latter case the presence of a competitive inhibitor of insulin.5.

Noxious


Definition:

  • (a.) Hurtful; harmful; baneful; pernicious; injurious; destructive; unwholesome; insalubrious; as, noxious air, food, or climate; pernicious; corrupting to morals; as, noxious practices or examples.
  • (a.) Guilty; criminal.

Example Sentences:

  • (2) "It looks as if the noxious mix of rightwing Australian populism, as represented by Crosby and his lobbying firm, and English saloon bar reactionaries, as embodied by [Nigel] Farage and Ukip, may succeed in preventing this government from proceeding with standardised cigarette packs, despite their popularity with the public," said Deborah Arnott, chief executive of the health charity Action on Smoking and Health.
  • (3) Noxious conditioning stimulation of a tooth led to a temporary decrease of the threshold for the jaw-opening reflex elicited from a contralateral or adjacent tooth; only conditioning stimulation at an intensity producing a marked arousal reaction was effective in this respect.
  • (4) Results showed the greatest inhibition of noxious stimulus perception with Innovar-Vet, lesser inhibition with ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam, and the least obtunding of nociception with pentobarbital.
  • (5) Furthermore the noxious stimuli were completely ineffective from 10-15 min following the lidocaine injection while the non-noxious stimuli maintained their efficacy.
  • (6) Experiments using normal human subjects were performed to determine the effect of a putative analgesic, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), on the perception of noxious thermal stimuli and also to examine critically the general applicability of signal detection theory (SDT) to the evaluation of analgesic agents.
