Preference determines behavioral choices such as choosing among food sources and mates. One preference-affecting chemical is ethanol, which guides insects to fermenting fruits or leaves. Here, we show that adult Drosophila melanogaster pref...
Time and intensity factors in identification of components of odor mixtures [0.03%]

Identification of odors of compounds introduced into changeable olfactory environments is the essence of olfactory coding, which focuses perception on the latest stimulus with the greatest salience. Effects of stimulus intensity and adaptin...
Effect of salt intensity on ad libitum intake of tomato soup similar in palatability and on salt preference after consumption [0.03%]

Sensory properties of food play an important role in satiation. Studies on the effect of taste intensity on satiation show conflicting results. This may be due to the notion that in these studies taste intensity and palatability were confou...

Humans describe their perception of certain odorants in terms of taste qualities (e.g., sweet). It has also been found that in humans, novel odorants can rapidly and irreversibly acquire a taste, even after just a single pairing with a tast...
Effect of stimulation of the laryngopharynx with water and salt solutions on voluntary swallowing in humans: characteristics of water receptors in the laryngopharyngeal mucosa [0.03%]

Stimulation of water receptors in the laryngopharynx (LP) with water facilitates voluntary swallowing in humans. Based on measures of swallowing intervals (SIs) in repetitive swallowing, we investigated characteristics of laryngopharyngeal ...
A novel psychophysical method for estimating the time course of olfactory rapid adaptation in humans [0.03%]

In this presentation, we describe a novel method for estimating the onset time course of psychophysical odor adaptation in human observers. The method employs stimulus conditions derived from an analogous stimulus paradigm in audition. To t...

The aim of the study was to examine the ability of Göttingen minipigs to acquire an olfaction-based operant conditioning task and to determine the detection threshold for ethyl acetate and ethanol. We used an automated olfactometer develop...
Eating without a nose: olfactory dysfunction and sensory-specific satiety [0.03%]
没有鼻子的进食：嗅觉失灵与感官特异性饱足感

Odor stimuli play an important role in the perception of food flavor. Olfactory dysfunction is thus likely to affect eating behavior. In the present study, we hypothesized that dysfunctional olfactory perception promotes sensory-specific sa...

Two recent studies, the second of which is reported herein, provide evidence that genetic variation in the sweet receptor subunit, TAS1R3, and the second messenger, gustducin (GNAT3), affect the ability of people to correctly sort ascending...
Association between common variation in genes encoding sweet taste signaling components and human sucrose perception [0.03%]

Variation in taste perception of different chemical substances is a well-known phenomenon in both humans and animals. Recent advances in the understanding of sweet taste signaling have identified a number of proteins involved in this signal...
