The structure of human olfactory space [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 We analyze the psychophysical responses of human observers to an ensemble of monomolecular odorants. Each odorant is characterized by a set of 146 perceptual descriptors obtained from a database of odor character profiles. Each odorant is therefore represented by a point in highly multidimensional sensory space. In this work we study the arrangement of

Conservation of Olfactory Avoidance in Drosophila Species and Identification of Repellents for Drosophila suzukii. [PDF]
, 2015 Flying insects use olfaction to navigate towards fruits in complex odor environments with remarkable accuracy. Some fruits change odor profiles substantially during ripening and related species can prefer different stages.

Evaluation of the key odorants of foods by dilution experiments, aroma models and omission.
Chemical Sensors, 2001 The state of the art in aroma analysis is reviewed with emphasis on aroma-recombination studies using synthetic blends of odorants (aroma models) which have been prepared on the basis of analytical data.

PsyCh Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Olfaction, often regarded as a unique chemical sensation, plays a pivotal role in shaping our quality of life and mental well‐being. Numerous studies have highlighted the significant relationship between olfactory function and depressive symptoms.

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Assessment of olfactory function with psychophysical testing requires cognitive demand to correctly pair test odors with remembered scents. Individuals suffering from long‐Corona Virus Disease 2019 (long‐COVID‐19) may develop a decline in neurocognitive performance, which may be concurrent with persistent olfactory dysfunction (OD ...

Odour perception in the codling moth Cydia pomonella L. [PDF]
, 2004 The codling moth, Cydia pomonella L. (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is a renowned pest in apple, pear and walnut orchards, and its activities are in large guided by volatile odours as sensory cues.

Chemical Sensors, 2012 Our olfactory system is confronted with complex mixtures of odorants, often recognized as single entities due to odor blending (e.g., coffee). In contrast, we are also able to discriminate odors from complex mixtures (e.g., off-odors).

Diet acts on sexual behavior development in a male moth
Insect Science, EarlyView.Drastic changes are observed during sexual maturation characterized by the reproductive system development concomitantly to the sexual behavior ontogenesis. These modifications are under the control of internal and external factors such as food. Knowing that sexual maturation requires considerable energetic investment, diet has been shown to affect ...

Insights on the nutritional ecology of a nocturnal pollinating insect
Insect Science, EarlyView.Nutritional ecology examines the environmental effects on nutritional needs, food intake and foraging behaviors, and the use of nutrients ingested by animals. Among insects, Lepidoptera are often considered opportunistic foragers that visit a wide variety of available flowers, although with some preferences.
