Making Scents: Dynamic Olfactometry for Threshold Measurement [PDF]

open access: yesChemical Senses, 2009
Data on human odor thresholds show disparities huge enough to marginalize olfactory psychophysics and delegitimize importation of its data into other areas. Variation of orders of magnitude from study to study, much of it systematic, threatens meaningful comparisons with animal species, comparison between in vivo with in vitro studies, the search for ...
