RAG1-deficient mice show normal habituation to non-socially derived odors and habituation to an open-field, indicating that the observed effect is not likely a result of a general deficit in habituation to novelty.
For instance, Libert et al., [ 30] described that the longevity of flies under normoxic conditions is dependent on olfaction and food derived odors, including odors from yeast.

One limitation of the electrophysiological data set is that it was derived from odor receptors analyzed in the "empty neuron" system.
Olfactometry is a widely used method, which allows measuring of odor concentration (given as Odor Units "OU" per cubic meter) and deriving the odor thresholds (Hudson and Ayoko, 2008a,b).
Fragrances that say they contain pheromones usually include androstenone and androstadienone — sex steroid-derived odor produced in sweat and urine.
Odor patterns are calculated based on affinities between ORNs and odor stimuli derived from physico-chemical descriptors of behaviorally relevant real-world odorants.
Human odor was derived from the socks worn by volunteers for 24 hours, and cow odor was derived from a panty hose tied around the leg of a cow for 24 hours.
Thus each glomerulus on the surface of the bulb has a specific chemical response spectrum, derived from the associated odor receptor.
The parameter set derived from the 10 odor ramps and naturalistic stimulus (Table 1) led to a remarkably good fit between the output of the ODE model and the experimentally measured spiking activity (experimental peristimulus time histogram PSTH black line, results of the IFF+IFB model blue line; Figure 4C,E,F, Figure 4 figure supplement 1).
In this study, an approach to assign an unknown odor sample to one specific classifier in the multiple classifier set is proposed that is based on an odor-type signature derived from the sensor array's response waveforms.
