Olfactory and gustatory disorders in COVID-19
Loss of olfaction is one of the symptoms most commonly reported by patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Although the spontaneous recovery rate is high, recent studies have shown that up to 7% of patients remain anosmic for more than 12 ...

Olfactory neuroepithelium in the superior and middle turbinates: which is the optimal biopsy site?
Summary Introduction: Olfactory neuroepithelium (ON) biopsy has several therapeutic applications for both disorders of olfaction and neurodegenerative diseases.

Inelastic electron transfer in olfaction: multiphonons processes [PDF]
Inelastic electron transfer being regarded as one of the potential mechanisms to explain the odorant recognition in the atomic-scale processes is still a matter of intense debate. Here, we propose multiphonon processes of electrons transfer using the Markvart model and calculate their lifetimes with values of key parameters widely adopted in olfactory ...

ABSTRACT Background According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), more than 20 million Americans suffer from chronic taste problems. Unfortunately, quantitative testing is rarely performed, self‐reports are inaccurate, and “taste” is often confused with olfaction‐dependent flavors.

Correlations between Persistent Olfactory and Semantic Memory Disorders after SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Background: One of the main symptoms of COVID-19 is hyposmia or even anosmia. Olfactory identification is most often affected. In addition, some cognitive disorders tend to appear following the infection, particularly regarding executive functions ...

Olfactory Dysfunction in Frontline Health Care Professionals During COVID-19 Pandemic in Brazil
Upper respiratory viral infections can decrease the sense of smell either by inflammatory restriction of nasal airflow that carries the odorant molecules or through interference in olfactory sensory neuron function.

Compressive Sensing-Based Recovery of Molecular Mixtures with Cross-Reactive Receptor Arrays [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a novel concept for engineered molecular communication (MC) systems inspired by animal olfaction. We focus on a multi-user scenario where transmitters employ unique mixtures of different types of signaling molecules to convey their messages to a central receiver, which is equipped with an array comprising $R$ different types ...

Nutrient Sensing: Another Chemosensitivity of the Olfactory System
Olfaction is a major sensory modality involved in real time perception of the chemical composition of the external environment. Olfaction favors anticipation and rapid adaptation of behavioral responses necessary for animal survival.
