Chemosensory impairment also tends to be associated with oversweetening and oversalting food to add flavor.
For practical purposes we chose to focus on the cephalic tentacles, and contraction assays were used to assess
chemosensory stimulants present within hypobranchial gland extracts.
Marine molluscs harbor compounds that have contrasting effects on predator and conspecific
chemosensory receptors, stimulating or inhibiting feeding behavior or inducing predator avoidance, respectively (Kicklighter et at.
However,
chemosensory impairments are simple to diagnose in the outpatient setting.
Content covers: chemicals producing sensory response; sensory response associated with chemicals; neuroimaging of
chemosensory function; chemoreception mechanisms; multisensory perception; memory and chemo-perception; and, flavor and hedonics.
The larval
chemosensory response depends on the concentration of these inductive substances.
A lobster's antennules, the extraordinarily sensitive
chemosensory organs that protrude from its head, are responsible for the crustacean's superb sense of smell.
The overall goal of this research project is to provide improved understanding of the combined impacts of climate change and pollutants on the
chemosensory system of marine organisms, focusing on ecologically and economically important crustaceans.
Insight into the chemotaxis of Caenorhabditis elegans toward pathogenic Bacillus thuringiensis Strain 4A4 using
chemosensory deficient nematodes, Belmont University, Nashville, Tennessee.
Most of these channels were annotated as being from the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel family or the G-protein-coupled receptor family; proteins from these families can have
chemosensory functions.
