Odorant-binding proteins are low molecular weight, soluble proteins that are secreted by glands of the nasal cavity. Their function is known to be the transport of hydrophobic odorants. This feature is important to artificial olfactory biosensors, which operate in the aqueous phase. In this study,

Greenshell™ mussels (Perna canaliculus) were dry-stored at 6.44±0.54°C for 8 days during which time volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were monitored using SPME GC-MS. Thirty-four VOCs were identified in homogenised mussel meat and 29 in the mussel liquor (i.e. the seawater enclosed in the mantle

To investigate the circuitry involved in detecting odorants in the rodent brain, we developed a method using manganese-enhanced MRI (MEMRI) to map the flow of neural information from the olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) to the central layers of the olfactory bulb. Studies have shown that Mn(2+)
