What's the difference between nonconducting and nonconductive?
Nonconducting
Definition:
(a.) Not conducting; not transmitting a fluid or force; thus, in electricity, wax is a nonconducting substance.
Example Sentences:
(1) We determined that the loss of somatosensory evoked potential amplitude may be attributed to the SOL if 30-100% of the spinal cord fibers that they displaced were rendered nonconducting.
(2) The microwave data are analysed using the Maxwell mixture theory applicable for a suspension of nonconducting, low permittivity spheres in bulk water.
(3) Protons can cross the membrane either as CHBr (nonconductive) or as CH+ (conductive), whereas Br- crosses the membrane primarily as CHBr (nonconductive).
(4) Reduction of the luminal [Cl-] from 120 to 3 mM failed to reveal any apical Cl- permeability (conductive or nonconductive) in CF cultures.
(5) The model is based on the notion that the transition between a conductive and a nonconductive state of the channel represents a local process in the protein, such as the movement of a small segment of a peptide chain or the rotation of a single amino-acid residue.
(6) The effects of conductive versus nonconductive samplers and sampling flow rate were measured as a function of particle and sampler charge levels.
(7) The slow voltage-dependent correlation time in the range of seconds is assigned to the formation of nonconducting pore precursors.
(8) The sensitivity of the measurements was increased if a nonconducting solution (isotonic sucrose) was used to isolate electrically the control from the experimental sites.
(9) The saline-filled and conductive catheter was safer in that fibrillation never occurred, while fibrillation nearly always occurred with the nonconductive catheter.
(10) Patients undergoing cardiac catheterization are particularly at risk from electrical hazards, primarily because catheters are made from nonconductive materials.
(11) A method for recording O2 concentrations in nonconducting organic media with the Clark oxygen electrode was developed.
(12) In a membrane containing many of these channels, the ratio of the number of conducting to nonconducting channels changes e-fold per 3.7 mV.
(13) The use of nonconducting materials on the mucosal side allowed us to demonstrate that apparently all epithelial cells are electrically coupled, with a mean space constant of 460 microm, and a voltage spread consistent with a thin sheet model.
(14) The relative contrast produced by nonconducting spheres in a uniform saline background was measured on the reconstructed images and used to determine system sensitivity to target volume and to the radial and vertical positions of single spheres.
(15) Following voltage-dependent activation, Drosophila Shaker K+ channels enter a nonconducting, inactivated state.
(16) The hypothesis that PT could interact with open or slow inactivated states to produce a drug-bound, long duration, nonconducting state was also tested.
(17) To examine the dynamic interrelations between conducted and nonconducted beats at different atrial rates, a unique atrial pacing protocol of functional 2:1 AV block was used in 10 patients.
(18) Class 1b drugs became rapidly attached to sodium channels after depolarization, which rendered them nonconducting, but the drugs also dissociated rapidly after repolarization so that by the end of a normal diastole nearly all channels were back to their conducting state.
(19) A nonconductive chamber was built with 1-cm-diameter electrodes placed 1 cm apart.
(20) Concealed (C) His bundle ectopic systoles (H') have been shown in man to give rise to first and second degree atrioventricular (A-V) block and to simulate nonconducted atrial premature beats (P').
