Topological reorganization of odor representations in the olfactory bulb. [PDF]
Odors are initially represented in the olfactory bulb (OB) by patterns of sensory input across the array of glomeruli. Although activated glomeruli are often widely distributed, glomeruli responding to stimuli sharing molecular features tend to be ...

OOPS, the Ontology for Odor Perceptual Space: from molecular composition to sensory attributes of odor objects [PDF]
When creating a flavor to elicit a specific odor object characterized by odor sensory attributes (OSA), expert perfumers or flavorists use mental combinations of odor qualities (OQ) such as Fruity, Green, Smoky.

Body Odor Quality Predicts Behavioral Attractiveness in Humans [PDF]
Growing effort is being made to understand how different attractive physical traits co-vary within individuals, partly because this might indicate an underlying index of genetic quality.

Drying Characteristics and Odor Concentration in Tail Gas in Vacuum Drying of Municipal Sewage Sludge [PDF]
As one of the most common solid wastes, municipal sewage sludge needs to be dried before its disposal and resource reuse. In this study, the effects of vacuum degree, heat source temperature and sludge thickness on drying rate and odor concentration in ...

Retronasal odor concentration coding in glomeruli of the rat olfactory bulb
The mammalian olfactory system processes odorants presented orthonasally (inhalation through the nose) and also retronasally (exhalation), enabling identification of both external as well as internal objects during food consumption.

Determination of Odor Air Quality Index (OAQII) Using Gas Sensor Matrix
This article presents a new way to determine odor nuisance based on the proposed odor air quality index (OAQII), using an instrumental method. This indicator relates the most important odor features, such as intensity, hedonic tone and odor concentration.

Five Typical Stenches Detection Using an Electronic Nose
This paper deals with the classification of stenches, which can stimulate olfactory organs to discomfort people and pollute the environment. In China, the triangle odor bag method, which only depends on the state of the panelist, is widely used in ...

Dopaminergic modulation of odor responses by local interneurons in the olfactory bulb [PDF]
The olfactory bulb is one of the few regions in the brain where dopamine is provided locally by an intrinsic population of GABAergic interneurons but their role in processing of sensory information remains ambiguous.

An extra-domiciliary method of delivering entomopathogenic fungus, Metharizium anisopliae IP 46 for controlling adult populations of the malaria vector, Anopheles arabiensis. [PDF]
: Fungal biopesticides have the potential to significantly reduce densities of malaria vectors as well as associated malaria transmission. In previous field trials, entomopathogenic fungus was delivered from within human dwellings, where its efficacy was
