Honeybees Learn Odour Mixtures via a Selection of Key Odorants [PDF]
, 2015 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.

Marine Terpenic Endoperoxides [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2021 Organic extracts of marine invertebrates, mainly sponges, from seas all over the world are well known for their high in vitro anticancer and antibiotic activities which make them promising sources of compounds with potential use as pharmaceutical leads. Most of the structures discovered so far have a peculiar structural feature in common: a 1,2-dioxane

Descriptors for terpene esters from chromatographic and partition measurements: Estimation of human odor detection thresholds [PDF]
, 2020 We have used gas chromatographic retention data together with other data to obtain Abraham descriptors for 30 terpene esters. These include the air-water partition coefficient, as log Kw, for which no experimental values are available for any terpene ...
