Because of their excellent olfactory sense, dogs are often used to find bombs, mines, drugs, or people buried by avalanches. For such applications, autonomous mobile robots could be used in the future. Electronic sensors already exist for a wide variety of ...
The olfactory system is a highly specialized chemodetector capable of discriminating between thousands of volatile chemical substances. This enormous capacity of chemical recognition is based on a large family of olfactory receptors (ORs). Despite the fact ...
Halogens, in particular fluorine atoms, are favorite tools to fine-tune the chemical and biological properties of pharmaceutical or agricultural development products. At the same time, such an electronegative substituent can effectively assist the site-sel ...
The animal olfactory system represents the gold standard of olfactory biosensors with its capability to identify and discriminate thousands of odorant compounds. In order to mimic the performances of natural olfactory sensors it is necessary to develop met ...
Odor perception may be considered from different perspectives: the physicochemical properties of odorants and target surfaces of interest, the biological aspects of electing odorant molecules by odorant receptors and their related downstream cellular signa ...
BACKGROUND: Odorant receptors (ORs) are thought to act in a combinatorial fashion, in which odor identity is encoded by the activation of a subset of ORs and the olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) that express them. The extent to which a single OR contribute ...
Much information is conveyed to animals by the diverse molecules propagated in their environment. This information is transmitted and treated within the olfactory system to be utilized by the rest of the brain. In this process, the sensory flow arriving fr ...
Olfaction, the detection of odorous chemicals in the environment, is one of the oldest mammalian sensory systems and involves large number (up to 1000) of distinct G protein coupled olfactory receptors (OR). The chemical interaction of volatile molecules w ...
Optical imaging techniques offer powerful solutions to capture brain networks processing in animals, especially when activity is distributed in functionally distinct spatial domains. Despite the progress in imaging techniques, the standard analysis procedu ...
The present invention concerns an intermediate of the following formula (I) in which R1 and R2 represent independently of each other a C1-C12 alkyl group, a (C1-C12 alkoxy)carbonyl group, optionally substituted by one, two or three halogen atom, a (C2-C12 ...
