Olfactory modulation of flight in Drosophila is sensitive, selective and rapid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Freely flying Drosophila melanogaster respond to odors by increasing their flight speed and turning upwind. Both these flight behaviors can be recapitulated in a tethered fly, which permits the odor stimulus to be precisely controlled.

The Role of Odor-Evoked Memory in Psychological and Physiological Health

open access: yesBrain Science, 2016
This article discusses the special features of odor-evoked memory and the current state-of-the-art in odor-evoked memory research to show how these unique experiences may be able to influence and benefit psychological and physiological health.

Sensory memory for odors is encoded in spontaneous correlated activity between olfactory glomeruli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Sensory memory is a short-lived persistence of a sensory stimulus in the nervous system, such as iconic memory in the visual system. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying olfactory sensory memory.

A primacy code for odor identity

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Humans can identify visual objects independently of view angle and lighting, words independently of volume and pitch, and smells independently of concentration.

Formation and Analysis of Volatile and Odor Compounds in Meat—A Review

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
The volatile composition and odor of meat and meat products is based on the precursors present in the raw meat. These are influenced by various pre-slaughter factors (species, breed, sex, age, feed, muscle type).

Linalool Odor-Induced Anxiolytic Effects in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
In folk medicine, it has long been believed that odorous compounds derived from plant extracts can have anxiolytic effects. Among them, linalool, one of the terpene alcohols in lavender extracts, has been reported to have the anxiolytic effects. However,

Impact of Perceptions of Air Pollution and Noise on Subjective Well-Being and Health

open access: yesEarth, 2022
With a growing interest in the study of urban life and health, evidence indicates that the quality of the environment in which we live can have implications for our subjective well-being and health.

Effects of deep-bedded finishing system on market pig performance, composition and pork quality

open access: yesAnimal, 2008
The purpose of this study was to compare effects of finishing environment on growth performance, pork quality and lipid composition of pork. Environments compared were standard confinement (CON) and deep-bedded semi-outdoor systems.

Odor Emissions Factors for Bitumen-Related Production Sites

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Bitumen-related production sites are facing increasing difficulties with nearby residents due to odor emissions. This parameter is still not regulated for these plants and little is known about the emissions that these plants have put into the atmosphere

Odor identity coding by distributed ensembles of neurons in the mouse olfactory cortex

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Olfactory perception and behaviors critically depend on the ability to identify an odor across a wide range of concentrations. Here, we use calcium imaging to determine how odor identity is encoded in olfactory cortex.
