Scents and sensibility: Best practice in insect olfactometer bioassays

نویسندگان

چکیده

Olfactometers have been used for more than 100 years and are integral to experimental chemical ecology. Studies utilising olfactometer bioassays form the foundation understanding behavioural responses of invertebrates stimuli under standardised laboratory conditions. Widely olfactometry apparatuses include two-arm olfactometers binary through four- six-arm arenas evaluate complex behaviours. Despite its prevalence in ecology studies, there has never a review best practice olfactometry. This critically evaluates both methods applications as well design analysis. We aim outline standard good improve reporting studies involving olfactometry, thereby establishing reference guide build robust workflow bioassays.

Olfaction: Scents and sensibility

Expression of a receptor protein has, for the first time, been definitively correlated with sensitivity to a particular odorant. This receptor, expressed in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, appears to be distinct from the putative vertebrate odorant receptors.

Scents and Sensibility: Towards a Molecular Logic of Perception

Gerald Fischbach: Richard Axel is a University professor at Columbia and was, seems to me, born and educated at Columbia, has been an extraordinary influence not just in neuroscience but I think in American biomedical science. He had a career in molecular biology—and still does—that has enormous influence over the way we think about genes and gene expression, and it is the infusion of new talen...

Best Practice

A process improvement program starts with the recognition of the organization’s needs and business goals, usually based on the main drivers and stimuli identified. From an analysis of the organizations needs and existing stimuli for improvement, the objectives of process improvement are identified and described. The final stage of the preliminary definition of the goals for the improvement prog...
