Video:Men Smell of Cheese; Women Smell of Onion or Grapefruit

men smell of cheese; women smell of onion or grapefruit

men smell of cheese while women smell of onions, new research claims, after tests were conducted on the two sexes' armpits.

scientists at firmenich, a company in geneva that researches flavours and smells for the food and perfume industry, took samples of armpit sweat from 24 men and 25 women after they had spent time in a sauna or 15 minutes on an exercise bike.

when the samples were analysed, the team found those from women contained high amounts of an odourless sulphur-containing compound, according to new scientist magazine.

when this mixed with bacteria usually found under the arm, it was transformed into a chemical called thiol, well known for its onion-like smell.

men however sweat in a different way - scientists found high levels of an odourless fatty acid which released a cheesy smell when exposed to enzymes produced by bacteria in the armpits.

christian starkenmann, who led the study, said: “men smell of cheese, and women of grapefruit or onion.”

a team of independent testers recruited by the scientists also found the smell from women’s armpits was more unpleasant.

it is thought the study could be used to develop deodorants aimed specifically at men or women.

not all scientists are convinced the experiment can be repeated outside switzerland however as people have different diets and genes elsewhere in the world.

professor tim jacob, who researches the science of smell at cardiff university, said: “other factors include what you eat, what you wash with, what you wear and what genes you inherit.”

last month it was reported that a woman can subconsciously tell when a man is sexually attracted to her by the smell of his sweat.

according to researchers from rice university in texas, men sweat different according to what mood they are in and women’s brains can pick up if a man is interested in her.

Video:Space Smells Like Fried Steak & Hot Metal

space smells like fried steak & hot metal


article submitted by master911.

space smells like fried steak and hot metal according to astronauts so nasa has paid a chemist to recreate the odours on earth.

the space agency has commissioned steven pearce of british fragrance firm omega ingredients to recreate the smells to help train astronauts, the press association reported

"we have a few clues as to what space smells like. first of all, there were interviews with astronauts that we were given, when they had been outside and then returned to the space station and were de-suiting and taking off their helmets, they all reported quite particular odours.

"for them, what comes across is a smell of fried steak, hot metal and even welding a motorbike, one of them said."

mr pearce recreated the smell of the mir space station for an art exhibition and when nasa heard about this they asked him to get on board with their training program.

“we have already produced the smell of fried steak, but hot metal is more difficult," he said.

“we think it’s a high energy vibration in the molecule and that’s what we’re trying to add to it now.”

Video:Scientists Genetically Transplant Flower Smells

scientists genetically transplant flower smells

a rose by any other name really would smell as sweet, after scientists discovered how to genetically introduce its scent into other flowers such as petunias and carnations.

a team of researchers claim to have discovered how to not only boost the natural smell of flowers by up to 10 fold but also transfer different scents between plants.

the scientists at the hebrew university of jerusalem have successfully introduced the genes from a rose into a petunia and from a rose into a carnation.

they have also swapped smells between carnations, petunias and clarcias.

eventually they hope the technology could also be used in yeast so that flowery smells can be added to wine, chocolate and bread.

in research that was published in the plant biotechnology journal, prof. alexander vainstein and his research assistant michal moyal ben-tzvi succeeded, together with other researchers, to find a way of enhancing the scent of a flower by 10-fold and cause it to emit a scent during day and night - irrespective of the natural rhythm of scent production.

the development, which has been patented by yissum, the hebrew university's technology transfer company, is intended to be applied to other agricultural produce.

the flower industry will also be interested in this development, said prof. vainstein. "many flowers lost their scent over many years of breeding.

"recent developments will help to create flowers with increased scent as well as producing new scent components in the flowers."

he said utilizing natural components could also be used to change not only the smell of fruit and vegetables, but also influence the commercial appeal of a wide array of produce.

more than a third of participants in flowers and plants association surveys stated that scent influenced their choice of flower purchase.

floral scents are also one of the most popular smells and the perfume industry expends a great deal of effort trying to reproduce the authentic fragrance of fresh flowers.

israel is the middle east's flower-producing superpower. its flower, plant and propagation material exports bring upwards of $200 million into the economy annually.

israel is third only to the netherlands and kenya in supplying the eu with flowers. each year, 1.5 billion stems are exported - twice as many as 10 years ago.

Video:Scented tires smell like silliness

scented tires smell like silliness

ever stop to think that the aroma of your car's tires could be more pleasant? no? well, the boys (and, probably, girls) at kumho tires did, creating the world's first scented car tire. the ecsta dx replaces the rubber smell of your typical tire with heat-resistant oils. first scent up is lavender, with orange an jasmine coming soon. personally, i'd like to see a kfc version. targeted at sedan-driving women, the fragrant tires are due to arrive in discount tire stores and tirerack.com by spring. pricing is $119 to $138 per tire, depending on size. yes, they seem ridiculous, but they said the same thing about scented candles once. from scifi.com

Video:Smelling And Hearing

smelling and hearing

an elderly woman goes to the doctor. she says, "doc, it's terrible, i pass gas all the time. fortunately, it's odorless and silent, otherwise i'd be mortified. for example, i've passed gas ten times just since we've been talking, but it's odorless and silent so you can't tell." the doctor gives her some green pills and tells her to take one a day and come back in a week. the woman comes back after taking the pills for a week. she says, "doc, there's been a change but not for the better. i still pass gas all the time, but while it's still silent, now it smells terrible!" the doctor says, "well, i'm glad we cleared up your sinus blockage. now we'll have to work on your hearing."
