Rapid Encoding and Perception of Novel Odors in the Rat
"... To gain insight into which parameters of neural activity are important in shaping the perception of odors, we combined a behavioral measure of odor perception with optical imaging of odor representations at the level of receptor neuron input to the rat olfactory bulb. Instead of the typical test of ..."

–150 ms after inhalation begins, leaving only 50–100 ms for central processing and response initiation. In most trials, odor discrimination had occurred even before the initial barrage of receptor neuron firing had ceased and before spatial maps of activity across glomeruli had fully developed
DETERMINATION OF HENRY’S LAW CONSTANTS OF ODOROUS
, 2004
"... Although utilities attempt to avoid offensive smelling compounds in consumer’s drinking water, their efforts are often hampered by a lack of data or knowledge of the physical, chemical, and sensory properties of odorants. Many factors affect the ability of a consumer to detect odors, including: conc ..."

constants can be calculated at any temperature using the van’t Hoff Equation. The method was applied to three taste-and-odor compounds of moderate water solubility (about 100 mg/L). 2-Methylisoborneol (2-MIB) is a methylated monoterpene alcohol that is produced by actinomycetes and blue-green algae and has
Green Odor Reduces Pain Sensation and Fatigue-like Responses Without Affecting Sensorimotor Function
"... Green leaves produce a specific odor, the so called ‘green odor’ which is composed of carbon-6 alcohols and aldehydes (Hatanaka, 1996). These chemicals were synthesized from α-linolenic and lino-leic acids through lipoxygenase/peroxidase-dependent cascades, a ..."

Effects of Green Odor on Expression of Fos-immunoreactivity in the Paraventricular Nucleus of the Thalamus in Forced Swimming Rats
"... The paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) projects to the limbic forebrains such as the prefrontal cortex, amygdale and nucleus accumbens (Otake et al., 2002) and is implicated directly or indirectly in the generation of behavioral, endocrine and/or auto- ..."

Better to be bimodal: the interaction of color and odor on learning and memory
"... Defended prey frequently advertise to potential predators using multimodal warning displays. Signaling through more than one sensory pathway may enhance the rate of avoidance learning and the memorability of these learned avoidances. If this is so, then mimetic insects would gain more protection fro ..."

from mimicking a multimodal rather than a monomodal model. Day-old domestic chicks (Gallus gallus domesticus) were used to examine whether a common insect warning odor (pyrazine) enhanced learning and memorability of yellow prey, a common warning color. Pyrazine increased the rate at which the chicks
Numerical modeling of turbulent and laminar airflow and odorant transport during sniffing in the human and rat nose. Chem Senses
, 2006
"... Human sniffing behavior usually involves bouts of short, high flow rate inhalation (>300 ml/s through each nostril) with mostly turbulent airflow. This has often been characterized as a factor enabling higher amounts of odorant to deposit onto olfactory mucosa than for laminar airflow and thereby ..."

Emotional Responses Evoked by Dental Odors: An Evaluation from Autonomic Parameters
"... Abstract. Among the factors which could explain avoidance behavior toward dental care, the typical clinging odor of the dental office, due to eugenol, is investigated in this study. The hypothesis is supported by the well-known effects of odorants which may influence cognition, emotion, and behavior ..."

Maxillary palps are broad spectrum odorant detectors in Culex quinquefasciatus
- Chemical Senses
, 2007
"... A single type of olfactory sensilla on maxillary palps in many species of mosquitoes houses a very sensitive olfactory receptor neuron (ORN) for carbon dioxide reception. We performed extensive single sensillum recordings from this peg sensillum in Culex quinquefasciatus and have characterized the r ..."

housed in these sensilla responded to 1-octen-3-ol and to various plant-derived compounds, particularly floral and green leaf volatiles. This ORN showed remarkable sensitivity to the natural enantiomer, (R)-()-1-octen-3-ol, rivaling pheromone-detecting ORNs in moths. Maximum neuronal response
Disposition and metabolism of 14-C-solvent yellow and solvent green aerosols after inhalation.” Fund

Little is known about the disposition of either dye after inhalation. To obtain this information, we exposed male ..."

This report describes the pathology in 12 African green monkeys (AGMs) that succumbed to inhalational anthrax afte ..."
