Gender-typical olfactory regulation of sexual behavior in goldfish

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
It is known that olfaction is essential for the occurrence of sexual behavior in male goldfish. Sex pheromones from ovulatory females elicit male sexual behavior, chasing and sperm releasing act.

Machine olfaction using time scattering of sensor multiresolution graphs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
In this paper we construct a learning architecture for high dimensional time series sampled by sensor arrangements. Using a redundant wavelet decomposition on a graph constructed over the sensor locations, our algorithm is able to construct discriminative features that exploit the mutual information between the sensors.

FDG PET, dopamine transporter SPECT, and olfaction: Combining biomarkers in REM sleep behavior disorder

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2017
Idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder is a prodromal stage of Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. Hyposmia, reduced dopamine transporter binding, and expression of the brain metabolic PD‐related pattern were each associated with increased

Stop and Smell the Pollen: The Role of Olfaction and Vision of the Oriental Honey Buzzard in Identifying Food. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The importance of olfaction for various avian behaviors has become increasingly evident. So far, the use of olfaction for food detection among raptors has only been demonstrated for Cathartes vultures.

Elevated Anxiety and Impaired Attention in Super-Smeller, Kv1.3 Knockout Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
It has long been recognized that olfaction and emotion are linked. While chemosensory research using both human and rodent models have indicated a change in emotion can contribute to olfactory dysfunction, there are few studies addressing the ...

Validity Examination of the Dissipative Quantum Model of Olfaction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
The validity of the dissipative quantum model of olfaction has not been examined yet and therefore the model suffers from the lack of experimental support. Here, we generalize the model and propose a numerical analysis of the dissipative odorant-mediated inelastic electron tunneling mechanism of olfaction, to be used as a potential examination in ...

An Explicit Electron-Vibron Model for Olfactory Inelastic Electron Transfer Spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The vibrational theory of olfaction was posited to explain subtle effects in the sense of smell inexplicable by models in which molecular structure alone determines an odorant's smell. Amazingly, behavioral and neurophysiological evidence suggests that humans and some insects can be trained to distinguish isotopologue molecules which are related by the

When the Nose Doesn’t Know: Canine Olfactory Function Associated With Health, Management, and Potential Links to Microbiota

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2018
The impact of health, management, and microbiota on olfactory function in canines has not been examined in review. The most important characteristic of the detection canine is its sense of smell.
