  2. Odor detection threshold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odor_detection_threshold

    Odor threshold value (OTV) (also aroma threshold value (ATV), Flavor threshold) is defined as the most minimal concentration of a substance that can be detected by a human nose. Some substances can be detected when their concentration is only few milligrams per 1000 tonnes, which is less than a drop in an Olympic swimming pool. Odor threshold ...

    Air fresheners from Febreze. Air fresheners are products designed to reduce unwanted odors in indoor spaces, or to introduce pleasant fragrances, or both. They typically emit fragrance to mask odors but may use other methods of action such as absorbing, bonding to, or chemically altering compounds in the air that produce smells, killing organisms that produce smells, or disrupting the sense of ...

  5. Odour activity value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odour_activity_value

    Odour activity value (OAV) is a measure of importance of a specific compound to the odour of a sample (e.g. food). It is calculated as the ratio between the concentration of individual substance in a sample and the threshold concentration of this substance (odour threshold value, the minimal concentration that can be detected by human nose).

  6. Horse management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_management

    Many horse management handbooks recommend grooming a horse daily, though for the average modern horse owner, this is not always possible. However, a horse should always be groomed before being ridden to avoid chafing and rubbing of dirt and other material, which can cause sores on the animal and also grind dirt into horse tack .

  7. Odor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odor

    The recognition odor threshold is usually a factor of two to five higher than the detection threshold. [22] The measurement of odor concentration is the most widespread method to quantify odors. It is standardized in CEN EN 13725:2003. [23] The method is based on dilution of an odor sample to the odor threshold. The numerical value of the odor ...

  8. Triethylenetetramine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triethylenetetramine

    Triethylenetetramine (TETA and trien), also known as trientine when used medically, is an organic compound with the formula [CH 2 NHCH 2 CH 2 NH 2] 2.The pure free base is a colorless oily liquid, but, like many amines, older samples assume a yellowish color due to impurities resulting from air oxidation.

  9. Linalool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linalool

    (S)-(+)-Linalool is perceived as sweet, floral, petitgrain-like (odor threshold 7.4 ppb) and the (R)-form as more woody and lavender-like (odor threshold 0.8 ppb). Over 200 species of plants produce linalool, notably from the families Lamiaceae ( mint and other herbs), Lauraceae ( laurels , cinnamon , rosewood ), and Rutaceae ( citrus fruits ...
