Complex refractive index, single scattering albedo, and mass absorption coefficient of secondary organic aerosols generated from oxidation of biogenic and anthropogenic precursors [PDF]
Refractive index and optical properties of biogenic and anthropogenic secondary organic aerosol (SOA) particles were investigated. Aerosol precursors, namely longifolene, α-pinene, 1-methylnaphthalene, phenol, and toluene were oxidized in a Teflon ...

Enantiospecific Optical Sensing of Terpenes by an Aggregated Atropisomeric Platinum(II) Complex
Aggregated metal complexes act as an artificial nose and permit reversible optical sensing of small volatile molecules like R/S‐limonene based on enantiospecific recognition. Abstract Terpenes are unfunctionalized small volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that are naturally abundant, relevant to climate change, and impose potential health risks.

Disruptant Effects of 4-Allylanisole and Verbenone on \u3ci\u3eTomicus Piniperda\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) Response to Baited Traps and Logs [PDF]
We assessed the inhibitory effects of the host compound 4-allylanisole (release rates = 1 and 2 mg/d in 1994, and 1 and 10 mg/d in 2001) on the response of the pine shoot beetle, Tomicus piniperda (L.), adults to funnel traps baited with the attractant ...

Honeybees Learn Odour Mixtures via a Selection of Key Odorants [PDF]
BACKGROUND The honeybee has to detect, process and learn numerous complex odours from her natural environment on a daily basis. Most of these odours are floral scents, which are mixtures of dozens of different odorants.
