OlfactionBase: a repository to explore odors, odorants, olfactory receptors and odorant–receptor interactions [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2021
Olfaction is a multi-stage process that initiates with the odorants entering the nose and terminates with the brain recognizing the odor associated with the odorant.

Odor Modification in Rigid Polyethylene Waste: Impact of Different Washing on Sensory Analysis and Characterization. [PDF]

open access: yesGlob Chall
Post‐consumer rigid polyethylene waste was characterized for odor‐active compounds using sensory analysis, comparative odor extract dilution analysis, and 2D‐GC‐MS/O. Twenty‐eight odorants were identified, with four reported for the first time. A direct comparison with polypropylene suggests polymer‐specific adsorption–desorption dynamics governed by ...

Odorant Receptor Inhibition Is Fundamental to Odor Encoding [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
SUMMARY Most natural odors are complex mixtures of many volatile components, competing to bind odorant receptors (ORs) expressed in olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) of the nose. To date surprisingly little is known about how OR antagonism shapes neuronal representations in the periphery of the olfactory system.

Neural processing of the reward value of pleasant odorants

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Summary Pleasant odorants are represented in the posterior olfactory bulb (pOB) in mice. How does this hedonic information generate odor-motivated behaviors? Using optogenetics, we here report that stimulating the representation of pleasant odorants in a

Enhancement of saltiness perception by odorants selected from Chinese soy sauce: A gas chromatography/olfactometry-associated taste study.

open access: yesFood Chemistry, 2020
Odor-taste interaction has become a popular salt reduction method. In this study, the odorants associated with saltiness in soy sauce were selected by gas chromatography/olfactometry-associated taste (GC/O-AT), and their ability to induce saltiness/umami

Identification of Aroma Composition and Key Odorants Contributing to Aroma Characteristics of White Teas

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
The identification of aroma composition and key odorants contributing to aroma characteristics of white tea is urgently needed, owing to white tea’s charming flavors and significant health benefits.

The Wire Is Not the Territory: Understanding Representational Drift in Olfaction With Dynamical Systems Theory

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Representational drift is a phenomenon of increasing interest in the cognitive and neural sciences. While investigations are ongoing for other sensory cortices, recent research has demonstrated the pervasiveness in which it occurs in the piriform cortex for olfaction.

Bilateral and unilateral odor processing and odor perception [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2020
AbstractImagine smelling a novel perfume with only one nostril and then smelling it again with the other nostril. Clearly, you can tell that it is the same perfume both times. This simple experiment demonstrates that odor information is shared across both hemispheres to enable perceptual unity.

Sensory Glia Detect Repulsive Odorants and Drive Olfactory Adaptation.

open access: yesNeuron, 2020
Glia are typically considered as supporting cells for neural development and synaptic transmission. Here, we report an active role of a glia in olfactory transduction. As a polymodal sensory neuron in C.

Odor Threshold Determination of 53 Odorant Chemicals [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Conservation Engineering, 1969
In order to assist in assessing potential odor problems arising from chemical manufacturing operations, the odor thresholds of 53 commercially important odorant chemicals have been determined using a standardized and defined procedure. The odor threshold data previously available have shown wide variation reflecting the diversity of procedures and ...
