A New Microprocessor-Controlled Dynamic Olfactometer [PDF]
Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association, 1981 The assessment and abatement of odorous emissions requires odor measurements to determine the magnitude of the problem and the effectiveness of control measures. This paper discusses a new concept in dynamic olfactometers designed to investigate a new approach to odor measurement.

Olfactory Bulb Volume and Function Recovery in Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This study investigated perioperative changes in olfactory bulb volume (OBV) in patients with eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis using high‐resolution 3T MRI. Postoperative increases in OBV were associated with improvements in olfactory identification, suggesting a potential link between olfactory bulb structural plasticity and functional recovery ...

A computer-controlled vapor-dilution olfactometer [PDF]
Behavior Research Methods & Instrumentation, 1980 A computer-controlled olfactometer with several innovations leading to closer control over the stimulus parameters and minimization of nonolfactory cues is presented. A microcomputer is used to control the stimulus duration and interstimulus interval. Electronic mass flow con-trollers are employed to maintain close control over the flow in the pure air

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Two plant‐growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) consortia (AU8 and TX1) induced a deterrence of host plant location and oviposition behavior of Spodoptera exigua females in both susceptible and resistant cotton plants. Most of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased in PGPR‐treated plants compared to untreated plants. # indicates treatments not
