Segregation of Unknown Odors From Mixtures Based on Stimulus Onset Asynchrony in Honey Bees

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Animals use olfaction to search for distant objects. Unlike vision, where objects are spaced out, olfactory information mixes when it reaches olfactory organs.

Stimulation of electro-olfactogram responses in the main olfactory epithelia by airflow depends on the type 3 adenylyl cyclase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Cilia of olfactory sensory neurons are the primary sensory organelles for olfaction. The detection of odorants by the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) depends on coupling of odorant receptors to the type 3 adenylyl cyclase (AC3) in olfactory cilia.

Deletion of NPAS4 in olfactory bulb principal neurons alters E/I balance and impairs decoding of chemically similar odour molecules. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Physiol
Abstract figure legend Conditional developmental deletion of the activity‐dependent transcription factor NPAS4 in mitral and tufted cells (ΔNPAS4M/T) impacts coding in the adult main olfactory bulb (MOB). Schematic shows exemplary inhibitory interneurons (blue) that innervate MOB projection neurons (red) that then project to the anterior olfactory ...

Influence of phytoplankton on the water quality of surface water sources and drinking water

open access: yesRUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2023
The problem of the appearance of odors in drinking water associated with the development of algae and cyanobacteria in reservoirs of drinking water sources is considered.

Odors: from chemical structures to gaseous plumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
We are immersed within an odorous sea of chemical currents that we parse into individual odors with complex structures. Odors have been posited as determined by the structural relation between the molecules that compose the chemical compounds and their ...

Influence of blood meal on the responsiveness of olfactory receptor neurons in antennal sensilla trichodea of the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In female Aedes aegypti L. mosquitoes, a blood meal induces physiological and behavioral changes. Previous studies have shown that olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs) housed in grooved peg sensilla on the antennae of Ae.

Floral and Bird Excreta Semiochemicals Attract Western Carpenter Ants

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Ant colonies have vast and diverse nutritional needs but forager ants have limited mobility to meet these needs. Forager ants would accrue significant energy savings if they were able to sense and orient toward odor plumes of both carbohydrate and ...

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.

Electroolfactogram (EOG) Recording in the Mouse Main Olfactory Epithelium [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Olfactory sensory neurons in the main olfactory epithelium (MOE) are responsible for detecting odorants and EOG recording is a reliable approach to analyze the peripheral olfactory function.

Odor Profiling of Environmental Odors

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1999
There is a need to standardize a field procedure for odor profiling of environmental odors. There is a need to drive the analytical procedures toward a practical, useful method for profiling odors in contrast to highly complex instrumentation or lab-based techniques. A technique for profiling odors, and tracking odor sources will be outlined.
