Key Odorants Regulate Food Attraction in Drosophila melanogaster

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017
In insects, the search for food is highly dependent on olfactory sensory input. Here, we investigated whether a single key odorant within an odor blend or the complexity of the odor blend influences the attraction of Drosophila melanogaster to a food ...

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Odor Profiling of Environmental Odors

Water 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.

Sufficient Gas and Solvated Ion Transport Assisted Rapid NH3 Detection at Room Temperature Through Bionic Olfactory Fibres

Exploration, EarlyView.
Bionic olfactory fibres with nanoconfined ionic liquids were developed to mimic human olfactory cilia. Benefiting from sufficient gas transport pathways provided by inter‐fibre interconnected pores and rapid transport of solvated ions in the confined nano spacing, bionic olfactory fibres show excellent sensing performance to NH3 and demonstrate the ...

Floral and Bird Excreta Semiochemicals Attract Western Carpenter Ants

Frontiers 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 ...

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

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, EarlyView.
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.
