Definition of diffusible in English:
diffusible
adjective dɪˈfjuːzɪb(ə)ldəˈfjuzəb(ə)l
Able to intermingle by diffusion.
diffusible factors in the cytoplasm
Example sentencesExamples
- Thus, for example, it seems impossible for nerve terminals to store a significant amount of an unstable and highly diffusible gas like nitric oxide: it must be synthesized on demand and diffuse instantly into the synaptic space.
- Recent studies have investigated the source and target neurons for the diffusible neuronal messenger molecule nitric oxide in the nervous system of the locust.
- By filtering the entry of cytosolic contents into each bead with the prehydrated dialysis membranes, only diffusible molecules below a certain size are permitted to enter the bead.
- In most cases the model assumes that the activated molecule is diffusible, and the washout occurs whenever the rate of diffusion exceeds rate of formation of the molecule.
- Namely, the inactivator molecule has to be diffusible in its active state.
