Objective Odor Assessment in Patients with Osmidrosis

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2022
Background:. No standards for the assessment of axillary odor intensity and the effects of therapy for osmidrosis have been established. This study presents an objective method for assessing odor severity in patients with osmidrosis and investigates the ...

Cognitive facilitation following intentional odor exposure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper reviews evidence that, in addition to incidental olfactory pollutants, intentional odor delivery can impact cognitive operations both positively and negatively.

Independence of Odor Quality and Absolute Sensitivity in a Study of Aging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Young, middle-aged, and senior subjects performed tasks designed to examine whether odor quality discrimination varies independently of sensitivity. One task entailed detection of 2-heptanone and the others AB-X discrimination of quality for sets of 2 ...

OOPS, the Ontology for Odor Perceptual Space: from molecular composition to sensory attributes of odor objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
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.

Categorical Dimensions of Human Odor Descriptor Space Revealed by Non-Negative Matrix Factorization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In contrast to most other sensory modalities, the basic perceptual dimensions of olfaction remain unclear. Here, we use non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) – a dimensionality reduction technique – to uncover structure in a panel of odor profiles ...

Odor Intensity Detection and Evaluation Method Considering Odor Prediction Model

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2018
Volatile organic pollutants produced during people’s living and production are the main source of stink pollution. The rapid and efficient detection and evaluation of odors in gas through effective methods is a key step for improving the level of ...

Optophysiological analysis of pattern classification strategies in the zebrafish olfactory bulb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Classification of overlapping activity patterns is a common problem for sensory systems. For a robust representation of sensory stimuli, neuronal circuits should generalize over input patterns reflecting variations of the same stimulus but separate ...

Body Odor Quality Predicts Behavioral Attractiveness in Humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.

Dopaminergic modulation of odor responses by local interneurons in the olfactory bulb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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.
