Seasonal Occurrence and UV-Based Oxidative Removal of Odorants in Surface Water: Insights into Structure-Dependent Reactivity

Toxics
Odorants present a persistent challenge in drinking water treatment due to their low odor threshold concentrations (OTCs) and their resistance to conventional processes.

From Passive Drift to Olfactory Detection? A Late‐Stage Oceanic Juvenile Hawksbill's 9000‐km Journey Across the Western Indian Ocean

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 11, November 2026.
A juvenile hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata, CCL = 38 cm) was tracked for 201 days across 9129 km from the Mozambique Channel to Huvadhu Atoll, Maldives, with ocean current reanalysis showing that 74% of this distance resulted from passive drift by regional surface currents.

MCs responses to odorants in normal and deprived OBs.

, 2013
We used the lower bound estimation of probability response when . The left panels show the distribution of odorant responses (filled rectangles) for MCs. The numbers , or of the odorants correspond to r-carvone, isoamylacetate and hexanal respectively.

Potentially Important Aroma Compounds in Dark Tea and Volatile Compound Changes During Primary Pile Fermentation: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
Pile fermentation drives the transformation of volatile profiles in dark tea. Systematic review and OAV consistency analysis reveal key aroma‐active compounds and their contributions to characteristic sensory attributes, including woody, aged, herbal, fatty, and floral/sweet notes.

Comprehensive elucidation of volatile, phenolic, and organic acid profiles in Turkish mallow (Malva sylvestris L.) petal herbal tea: impact of diverse brewing conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 14, Page 8724-8741, November 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Mallow (Malva sylvestris L.) petals are traditionally consumed as herbal tea across the Mediterranean for their soothing and anti‐inflammatory properties; however, scientific characterization of this consumption‐relevant matrix under realistic brewing conditions remains scarce.

From Gas Phase to Protein Confinement: Characterizing the Conformational Landscape of 1‐Octen‐3‐ol in Bovine Odorant‐Binding Protein

Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 11, November 2026.
A joint venture of microwave spectroscopy, quantum chemistry, molecular dynamics, and existing crystallographic data, unravels how 1‐octen‐3‐ol reshapes its conformational ensembles across air, water, and the protein environment. Rather than simply preserving gas phase structure, the bovine OBP binding pocket allows 1‐octen‐3‐ol to broadly explore ...

Retronasal Olfactory Function After Olfactory Training: A Prospective Single‐Arm Study

Clinical Otolaryngology, Volume 51, Issue 6, Page 938-943, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Retronasal olfaction is essential for aroma perception. Its impairment in individuals with olfactory dysfunction (OD) negatively affects dietary behaviour and quality of life. Regular exposure to odours in a form of olfactory training (OT) is used to rehabilitate the sense of smell.

Thermogenesis‐derived spatiotemporal microclimates guide pollinator movement to ensure pollination

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 11, Page 4071-4087, November 2026.
Alocasia odora's microclimatic heterogeneity guides Colocasiomyia fly movement within its inflorescence. During the female stage, midday heat in the upper spadix pushes flies down to the cooler female zone. During the male stage, nocturnal warmth in the upper part pulls flies upward and spathe constriction closes the lower female chamber.
