Olfactory Stimulation Modulates Visual Perception Without Training

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
Considerable research shows that olfactory stimulations affect other modalities in high-level cognitive functions such as emotion. However, little known fact is that olfaction modulates low-level perception of other sensory modalities.

A neuroimaging study of pleasant and unpleasant olfactory perceptions of virgin olive oil [PDF]

, 2016
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has been used to collect information from neurons that receive direct input from olfactory bulbs when subjects smell virgin olive oil. The pleasant aroma of three extra virgin olive oils (var.

Poor preoperative performance at Clock Drawing Test is associated with postoperative decline in olfaction in older patients: an observational pilot study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Decline in olfaction may occur after general anesthesia, but the exact incidence and underlying physiopathology remain scarcely investigated. Olfactory dysfunction arises with aging and is known to be linked to cognitive impairment.

Increasing pattern recognition accuracy for chemical sensing by evolutionary based drift compensation [PDF]

, 2011
Artificial olfaction systems, which mimic human olfaction by using arrays of gas chemical sensors combined with pattern recognition methods, represent a potentially low-cost tool in many areas of industry such as perfumery, food and drink production ...

Surface Engineering on Transition Metal Dichalcogenides: In Situ Encapsulation of Metal–Organic Frameworks for Highly Humidity‐Resistant Gas Sensing at Room Temperature

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
2D UiO‐66‐NH2/MoS2 was fabricated via an aqueous synthesis method to in situ encapsulation of MoS2 with 2D UiO‐66‐NH2 MOF. The humidity‐resistant NO2 sensing of 2D UiO‐66‐NH2/MoS2 at room temperature was accordingly enhanced by MOF encapsulation layer, along with the selectivity and stability.

Olfaction: Receptor Antagonistes [PDF]

Current Biology, 2020
Odor receptors of the mammalian olfactory system have long been known to be activated in combinatorial fashion by odorants. A large-scale study now reveals that inhibition of receptors by odorants is comparably prevalent and combinatorial.

Could humans recognize odor by phonon assisted tunneling? [PDF]

, 2006
Our sense of smell relies on sensitive, selective atomic-scale processes that are initiated when a scent molecule meets specific receptors in the nose. However, the physical mechanisms of detection are not clear.

Identification of Exhaled Volatile Organic Compounds Biomarkers for Lung Cancer Under Data‐Limited Conditions Using Data Augmentation and Multi‐View Feature Selection

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
This work introduces a novel framework for identifying non‐small cell lung cancer biomarkers from hundreds of volatile organic compounds in breath, analyzed via gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry. This method integrates generative data augmentation and multi‐view feature selection, providing a stable and accurate solution for biomarker discovery in ...
