A review of the literature is presented that gives a background to the human sense of smell, then the importance of learnt and innate olfactory cues in animal behaviour. Some possible roles for natural products chemists interested in the interaction between animals and plants are discussed.

The Aurora experiment to investigate double beta decay of Cd with the help of 1.162 kg cadmium tungstate crystal scintillators enriched in Cd to 82% is in progress at the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory. The half-life of Cd relatively to the two neutrino double beta decay is measured with the highest up-to-date accuracy T1/2 = (2.62 ± 0.14) × 10 yr. The sensitivity of the experiment to the ne...
