Scent Goes Digital: The Role of Insect Odorant Binding Proteins in Modern Technology

BioFactors, Volume 52, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
This review delves into bioinspired olfactory biosensors, focusing on insect odorant binding proteins (OBPs) as core elements of hybrid bionic platforms for volatile compound detection. Highlighting the development of the biological electronic nose (BE‐NOSE), it examines current prototypes, outlines advantages over conventional methods, and explores ...

Meat odour and flavour and indoles concentration in ruminal fluid and adipose tissue of lambs fed green herbage or concentrates with or without tannins

Animal, 2009
A 2 × 2 factorial experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of herbage or concentrate feeding system and tannin addition to diet on skatole and indole in ruminal fluid and adipose tissue and meat sensory properties.

The Potential Role of Two Red Macroalgae (Asparagopsis taxiformis and A. armata) That Promote Anti‐Methanogenic Activities in Laboratory Conditions

Animal Science Journal, Volume 97, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of two red macroalgae species (RMS; Asparagopsis taxiformis and A. armata) on rumen fermentation profiles, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, microbiome changes, and anti‐methanogenic activities.

Breed-dependent differences in gut microbiota linked to indole and skatole levels in Hezuo and DLY pigs

BMC Microbiology
Backgroud Indole and skatole are major odorous compounds generated in pig farms and their emissions affect the sustainable development of pig industry seriously.

Weight and season affects androstenone and skatole occurrence in entire male pigs in organic pig production

Animal, 2015
To investigate the extent to which the level of androstenone and skatole decreases with a decrease in live weight and/or age at slaughter of entire male pigs produced under organic standards, 1174 entire male pigs were raised in parallel in five organic ...

Assessing boar taint in Portuguese pork: A small-scale study of prevalence and classification via established detection thresholds

Spanish Journal of Agricultural Research
Aim of study: To assess the boar taint prevalence in the Portuguese pork industry through an observational study model by measuring skatole and androstenone levels in fat and to compare it with the estimated thresholds for these compounds among ...

In vitro assessment of the effectiveness of non-nutritive sorbent materials as binding agents for boar taint compounds

Animal, 2011
Boar taint, an off-odor and an off-flavor in the meat from some uncastrated male pigs, is due to high levels of the testicular steroid hormone, androstenone, and the indole, skatole.

Biochemical, nutritional and genetic effects on boar taint in entire male pigs

Animal, 2009
Pork odour is to a great extent affected by the presence of malodorous compounds, mainly androstenone and skatole. The present review outlines the current state of knowledge about factors involved in the regulation of androstenone and skatole in entire ...

Development of a species-specific TaqMan-MGB real-time PCR assay to quantify Olsenella scatoligenes in pigs offered a chicory root-based diet

AMB Express, 2018
Olsenella scatoligenes is the only skatole-producing bacterium isolated from the pig gut. Skatole, produced from microbial degradation of l-tryptophan, is the main contributor to boar taint, an off-odor and off-flavor taint, released upon heating meat ...
