Modeling geosmin removal in a full-scale filter [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2020 Taste and odor compounds affect drinking water safety perception and may drive consumers to less secure water sources. Adsorption, using powered activated carbon, is the most common method to remove these compounds but greatly increases the amount of ...

The analytic hierarchy process method to design applicable decision making for the effective removal of 2-MIB and geosmin in water sources. [PDF]
Environ Sci Pollut Res IntNumerous utilities encounter issues with taste and odor that alter the public’s impression of the safety of drinking water. The creation of certain components in water naturally due to global climate change is another source of taste and odor components,

Type-specific molecular signaling architectures and synaptic plasticity of Drosophila olfactory sensory neurons [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular NeuroscienceOlfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) detect odours at a wide range of intensities. In Drosophila, volatile compounds bind to specific odorant receptors (ORs), which tune the sensitivity of chemoreception.

Effects of Geosmin on the Behavior of Soil Protists. [PDF]
Microb EcolGeosmin is a volatile organic compound (VOC) produced by a range of different soil microorganisms, and is most commonly recognized for its characteristic "earthy" scent evident after rainfall. Though it remains unclear why microorganisms produce geosmin, we know that exposure to geosmin can influence behaviors across a wide range of organisms, serving ...

Influence of Temperature Regimes on the Production of 2-MIB and Geosmin by Pseudanabaena galeata and Phormidium ambiguum. [PDF]
Water Environ ResTwo cyanobacteria species Pseudanabaena galeata and Phormidium ambiguum were exposed to 20°C, 30°C, and 40°C for a 10‐day period, and samples were taken every other day for a 10‐day period. Both species showed significant changes in odor compound production at different temperature regimes.
