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.

The Potential Use of Volatile Biomarkers for Malaria Diagnosis

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Pathogens may change the odor and odor-related biting behavior of the vector and host to enhance pathogen transmission. In recent years, volatile biomarker investigations have emerged to identify odors that are differentially and specifically released by

Evaluation of TiO2 Based Photocatalytic Treatment of Odor and Gaseous Emissions from Swine Manure with UV-A and UV-C

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
It is essential to mitigate gaseous emissions that result from poultry and livestock production to increase industry sustainability. Odorous volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), and greenhouse gases (GHGs) have ...

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.

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.

Mapping odorant sensitivities reveals a sparse but structured representation of olfactory chemical space by sensory input to the mouse olfactory bulb

open access: yeseLife, 2022
In olfactory systems, convergence of sensory neurons onto glomeruli generates a map of odorant receptor identity. How glomerular maps relate to sensory space remains unclear.

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,

Slow dynamics of the contact process on complex networks

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The Contact Process has been studied on complex networks exhibiting different kinds of quenched disorder. Numerical evidence is found for Griffiths phases and other rare region effects, in Erdős Rényi networks, leading rather generically to anomalously ...

The High Testosterone Concentrations of the Bucks Used in the “Male Effect” Is Not a Prerequisite for Obtaining High Ovarian Activity in Goats from Mediterranean Latitudes

open access: yesAnimals, 2022
Two experiments were carried out. Firstly, 54 anestrous females were placed in contact with photostimulated males (Photo; n = 27) or with no photostimulated males (Natural; n = 27).

Odor Profiling of Environmental Odors

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1999
There is a need to standardize a field procedure for odor profiling of environmental odors. There is a need to drive the analytical procedures toward a practical, useful method for profiling odors in contrast to highly complex instrumentation or lab-based techniques. A technique for profiling odors, and tracking odor sources will be outlined.
