Optical Methods in Studies of Olfactory System - Bioelectronic Nose: Integration of Biotechnology and Nanotechnology - page 210

techniques have demonstrated new and unique opportunities towards a sensitive
and selective biophotonic nose as well as basic olfaction research in combinatorial
code and the in situ topographic map in the olfactory bulb and brain.
