Olfoto: designing a smell-based interaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present a study into the use of smell for searching digi-tal photo collections. Many people now have large photo libraries on their computers and effective search tools are needed.

Quantification of Allyl Methyl Sulfide, Allyl Methyl Sulfoxide, and Allyl Methyl Sulfone in Human Milk and Urine After Ingestion of Cooked and Roasted Garlic

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2020
Due to its characteristic flavor and positive effects on human health, garlic is a highly valued food ingredient. Consumption of garlic alters the quality of body odors, which may in some instances hinder social interaction but be beneficial in other ...

The Shape of the Olfactory Bulb Predicts Olfactory Function

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
The olfactory bulb (OB) plays a key role in the processing of olfactory information. A large body of research has shown that OB volumes correlate with olfactory function, which provides diagnostic and prognostic information in olfactory dysfunction ...

Food-Related Odors Activate Dopaminergic Brain Areas

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Food-associated cues of different sensory categories have often been shown to be a potent elicitor of cerebral activity in brain reward circuits. Smells influence and modify the hedonic qualities of eating experience, and in contrast to smells not ...

Neural Processing of Odors with Different Well-Being Associations—Findings from Two Consecutive Neuroimaging Studies

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2023
Much is known about the effect of odors on mood, cognition and behavior, but little is known about the relationship between odors and well-being. We investigated the neural processing of odors with different degrees of association with well-being (WB ...

Perception space - The final frontier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mapping the complex sensory behavior of animals, such as smell in bees, to relevant neural activity provides clues into how animals perceive and respond to the world through their ...

Data-science based analysis of perceptual spaces of odors in olfactory loss

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Diminished sense of smell impairs the quality of life but olfactorily disabled people are hardly considered in measures of disability inclusion. We aimed to stratify perceptual characteristics and odors according to the extent to which they are perceived

Measuring smells

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Neurobiology, 2008
Olfaction consists of a set of transforms from a physical space of odorant molecules, through a neural space of information processing, and into a perceptual space of smell. Elucidating the rules governing these transforms depends on establishing valid metrics for each of the three spaces.

Indistinguishable odour enantiomers: Differences between peripheral and central-nervous electrophysiological responses

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The ability of humans to discriminate enantiomeric odour pairs is substance –specific. Current literature suggests that psychophysical discrimination of odour enantiomers mainly depends on the peripheral processing at the level of the olfactory sensory ...

Functional connectivity differences in healthy individuals with different well-being states

open access: yesNeuroscience Informatics, 2023
Well-being (WB) is defined as a healthy state of mind and body. It is a state in which an individual is able to contribute to its society, able to work productively and overcome the normal stress of life.
