Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOlfactory Responses of the Asiatic Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri) to Mineral Oil-Treated Mandarin LeavesMofit Eko Poerwanto, Y. Andi Trisyono, G. Andrew C. Beattie et al.Problem statement: Evidence of rejection or acceptance by phytophagous pests of citrus plants treated with mineral oils suggests that impacts of oils may be related to detection by olfactory and/or contact chemoreceptors of repellent oils or plant volatiles. Alternatively, the oils may mask or suppress attractant host plant volatiles. To date, no studies have reported that oils elicit an olfactory … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 8,782 accessesView PDF Cite

Archunan, K. Rameshkumar et al.Problem statement: The present investigation carry out a pilot study of a novel method to identify the salivary volatiles in different phases of menstrual cycle for the assessment of ovulation detection using gas chromatography and mass spectrophotometer. Approach: The profiles from follicular phase (6-12 days); ovulatory phase (13-14 days) and luteal phase (15-26 days) of menstrual cycle samples were compared … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,365 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlfaction and Emotion Content Effects for Memory of VignettesJeremy W. Grabbe, Ann L. McCarthy, Charissa M. Brown, Arlene A. SaboProblem statement: Recent research has shown a relationship between olfaction and episodic/autobiographical memory. The mnemonic theory of odor asserts that odor representation and storage is tied to memory. The Proust phenomenon suggests that specifically episodic memory is the memory component behind the mnemonic theory of olfaction. Neurological evidence demonstrates that neural structures related to emotion have connections between olfactory receptors … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,815 accessesView PDF Cite
