Olfactory variation in mouse husbandry and its implications for refinement and standardisation: UK survey of non-animal scents [PDF]

, 2016
With their highly sensitive olfactory system, the behaviour and physiology of mice are not only influenced by the scents of conspecifics and other species, but also by many other chemicals in the environment. The constraints of laboratory housing limit a

Ten Years of Patch Testing to Hydroperoxides of Limonene and Linalool: Prevalence, Patterns and Clinical Insights. [PDF]

Contact Dermatitis
Limonene and linalool hydroperoxides are potent fragrance sensitisers. Amongst 6719 patch‐tested patients, 1.6% reacted to Lim‐OOH and 3.1% to Lin‐OOH. Reactions were mainly weak and peaked at day 3/4. Co‐reactivity confirmed true allergenicity. Current test concentrations (0.3% and 1.0%) appear optimal for inclusion in the European baseline series ...

Effect of Fruit Maturation Stage on the Chemical Composition and Antioxidant and Cytotoxic Activities of Piper nigrum Essential Oil

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
The essential oils of Piper nigrum show marked chemical and biological variation across fruit maturation stages. Ripe fruits yield oils with the strongest antioxidant and cytotoxic activities, demonstrating that maturation directly modulates volatile composition and enhances the bioactive potential of this aromatic species.
