In order to determine whether molecular features of odorants are represented spatially in the
glomerular layer of the olfactory bulb, we used metabolic mapping of [14C] 2‐deoxyglucose …

In previous studies, we mapped glomerular layer 2‐deoxyglucose uptake evoked by
hundreds of both systematically related and chemically distinct odorants in rat olfactory …

To study the mechanism whereby odorants are encoded in the nervous system, we studied
the glomerular‐layer activity patterns in the rat olfactory bulb evoked by closely related …

Principles of olfactory coding can be clarified by studying the olfactory bulb activity patterns
that are evoked by odorants differing systematically in chemical structure. In the present …

In an effort to understand the olfactory code of rats, we collected more than 1,500,000
measurements of glomerular activity in response to 54 odorants selected to provide …

To investigate the effect of odorant hydrocarbon structure on spatial representations in the
olfactory bulb systematically, we exposed rats to odorant chemicals possessing one of four …

To determine whether there is a general strategy used by the olfactory system to represent
odorants differing in carbon chain length, rats were exposed to homologous series of …

Systematic mapping studies involving 365 odorant chemicals have shown that glomerular
responses in the rat olfactory bulb are organized spatially in patterns that are related to the …

In an effort to understand the means by which similar chemical odorants are encoded in the
mammalian brain, we exposed rats to a homologous series of n‐aliphatic acids and mapped …

Organic acid odorants of differing carbon number produce systematically different spatial
patterns of [14C] 2‐deoxyglucose uptake in the glomerular layer of the olfactory bulb …
