1. On the interactions of ions and odor molecules with nanomaterials in water and synthetic urine
Sammanfattning : Towards the quest of finding materials to be used as adsorbents in real systems, it is crucial to understand the underlying adsorption processesfully. In many applications, adsorption occurs in biological fluids containing a vast range of ions, organic molecules, and biomolecules. LÄS MER
2. Human Pheromones : Psychological and Neurological Modulation of a Putative Human Pheromone
Sammanfattning : The notion that humans have specialized chemicals used for communication between conspecifics, so-called pheromones, has attracted much attention and discussion. This thesis demonstrates in four separate studies that a human endogenous steroidal compound that is abundant in male sweat, androstadienone, affects women in several ways that differ to that of common odors.

3. Odor perception in three Coleoptera: molecule, receptor & neuron
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, the sense of olfaction and its links to behavior was studied in the cetoniid chafers Pachnoda interrupta and P. marginata, and the bark beetle Ips typographus. P. interrupta is a pest on sorghum in Ethiopia, and I. LÄS MER
4. Intimate relationships and olfaction : Body odors, adult attachment, and romance
Sammanfattning : Odors influence several aspects of life, such as thoughts, memories, decisions, and emotions. Numerous studies have shown that human behavior can be affected by odors in different contexts. One such context is social relationships, in which body odors play a role. LÄS MER
5. Neuromechanical basis of airflow-dependent antennal positioning in hawkmoths
Sammanfattning : Fast behaviors, seen in varied life forms, are often considered to be stereotypic and reflexive and the control neural circuits to be hard-wired. However, many such reflexes have been shown to respond in a context-dependent manner. LÄS MER
