Abstract:
Can the experiences that we have when we eat and smell make a meaningful contribution to art? Often referred to as ‘the bodily senses’ or ‘the lower senses’, the chemical senses of taste, olfaction and chemesthesis have been determined as unsuitable for inclusion in art in classical philosophical literature. This research challenges that exclusion by exploring the classical judgements and asking if these senses have anything to contribute to contemporary art. If so, what are the contributions of these senses and their limitations? This is new research within art theory that draws upon multidis

Abstract:
Chemical senses play a critical role in predator-prey and social interactions of many animals. Predators often evoke adaptive escape responses by prey, one of which is the release of chemicals that induce adaptive avoidance behaviors from both predators and conspecifics. I explore the use of chemicals in predator-prey and social interactions, using a crustacean model system, the spiny lobster. As predators, spiny lobsters are opportunistic, polyphagous feeders, and they rely heavily on their chemical senses during feeding. Some of their potential prey deter attacks through chemical defens

Odor signals mediate a variety of behaviors in animals across a diversity of taxa. Despite dramatic morphological differences between animals from different taxa, several important features of olfactory system organization and processing are similar across animals.

As in other organisms, including both vertebrates and insects, the chemosensory system of decapod crustaceans is organized int

In a honey bee colony, the queen uses queen mandibular pheromone (QMP) to induce young worker bees to feed and groom her. Among its many behavioural and physiological effects, QMP reduces dopamine levels in the brains of young worker bees.

This study investigates the effects of QMP on motor activities and aversive learning behaviour and the potential link between QMP and dopamine levels in the brain of young bees.

It was long believed that humans were unable to utilise the odours of conspecifics to co-ordinate social interactions in ways in which other species appear to be capable.

Furthermore, many studies indicate that women are often more sensitive to these cues, and that sensitivity can be associated with fertility, findings that are consistent with sex differences in reproductive eff

Dentre os diversos tipos de sensores matriciais de gases, conhecidos como narizes eletrônicos, os feitos à base de polímeros vêm se destacando devido ao baixo custo, fácil processabilidade, operação em temperatura ambiente e boa resposta sensorial. O presente trabalho mostra a confecção e análise de sensores poliméricos e um n

Abstract:
We have investigated and implemented several general strategies in the development of microfluidics-based chemical/biochemical sensing systems. The research in this dissertation covers the immobilization of biological reagents inside microfluidic channels using polystyrene (PS) microbeads and photopolymerizable hydrogel, electrochemical sensing via electrochemiluminescence (ECL) reporting with bipolar and two-electrode configurations, and integration of these general functions to realize multiplexing and networking on-chip. Photopolymerizable hydrogel based on Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and
