Commutative Algebra, chapter V, § 2. The lift of prime ideals

Let A′A' be an integral domain, AA a subring of A′A' such that A′A' is integral over AA and ff a homomorphism from A′A' to a ring BB. If the restriction off to AA is injective ff is injective.

If a′a' is the kernel off, the hypothesis means that a′∩A=(0)a' \cap A = (0); as A′A' is an integral domain, Corollary 1 may be applied taking pp and p′p' to be the ideal (0) of AA and the ideal (0) of A′A' respectively, whence a′=(0)a' = (0).

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
