Editing Syringe (section)

===Others===
Syringes are used to refill [[ink cartridge]]s with [[ink]] in [[fountain pen]]s.

Common workshop applications include injecting [[glue]] into tight spots to repair joints where disassembly is impractical or impossible; and injecting lubricants onto working surfaces without spilling.

Sometimes a large hypodermic syringe is used without a needle for very small baby [[mammal]]s to [[breastfeeding|suckle]] from in artificial rearing.

Historically, large pumps that use reciprocating motion to pump water were referred to as syringes.  Pumps of this type were used as early [[firefighting]] equipment.

There are fountain syringes where the liquid is in a bag or can and goes to the nozzle via a pipe. In earlier times, [[clyster]] syringes were used for that purpose.

Loose [[snus]] is often applied using modified syringes. The nozzle is removed so the opening is the width of the chamber. The snus can be packed tightly into the chamber and plunged into the upper lip. Syringes, called portioners, are also manufactured for this particular purpose.
