An '''antimatter injector''' is a device which is located in the [[Matter-Antimatter Reaction Assembly]] which precisely compresses and precisely streams [[Antimatter]] into the [[Dilithium Articulation Frame]] in a starship's warp core. (ENT: "Acquisition")

During the 2150s, Andorian battle cruisers were fitted with antimatter injectors that used [[Variable-compression Nozzle]]s. At the time, the [[Andorian]]s considered the technology as "very sophisticated," and knowledge about them as "rather sensitive." During the Xindi mission, Trip Tucker received an antimatter injector from Shran, as a favor, because, according to Tucker, "one of those injectors would work wonders for our engines." (ENT: "Proving Ground")

In 2374, a lone member of [[Species 8472]] gained access to Main Engineering on the USS Voyager through the antimatter injector port. It attacked the engineering crew, though it did not damage the ship. (VOY: "Prey")

In late 2375, when the USS Defiant was about to leave Deep Space 9 for the Chin'toka system, Colonel Kira Nerys opened the ship's antimatter injector ports. (DS9: "The Changing Face of Evil")
