Saturation
In protein chemistry, the limit at which a reversible binding site is fully occupied by a ligand. In magnetic resonance, saturation is the raising of a paramagnetic compound or chemical group to an activated state by radiofrequency radiation faster than it can spontaneously relax to the ground state; as the high-energy spin state of the molecules is fully populated, higher intensity radiation cannot be absorbed.
