A bioelectronic nose, an intelligent chemical sensor array system coupled with bio-receptors
to identify gases and vapours, resembles mammalian olfaction by which many vertebrates …

Humans have 396 unique, intact olfactory receptors (ORs), G-protein coupled receptors
(GPCRs) containing receptor-specific binding sites; other mammals have more. Activation of …

Odors elicit complex patterns of activated olfactory sensory neurons. Knowing the complete
olfactome, ie the responses in all sensory neurons for all relevant odorants, is desirable to …

Mammalian survival depends on ultrasensitive olfactory detection of volatile sulfur
compounds, since these compounds can signal the presence of rancid food, O2 depleted …

While the objects of olfaction are intuitively individuated by reference to the ordinary objects
from which they arise, this intuition does not accurately capture the complex nature of smells …

Sulfur-containing compounds within a physiological relevant, natural odor space, such as
the key food odorants, typically constitute the group of volatiles with the lowest odor …

Insect olfactory receptors (iORs) with atypical 7‐transmembrane domains, unlike Chordata
olfactory receptors, are not in the GPCR protein family. iORs selectively bind to volatile …

The vibrational theory of olfaction is an attempt to describe a possible mechanism for
olfaction which is explanatory and provides researchers with a set of principles which permit …

The guanine nucleotide protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) superfamily
represents the largest class of membrane protein in the human genome. More than a half of …

A novel thiol-functionalized polysilsesqioxane containing hydroxyl and methyl groups was
synthesized using a simple acid-catalyzed sol–gel method to develop an epoxy hardener …
