Effect of Functional Group and Carbon Chain Length on the Odor Detection Threshold of Aliphatic Compounds

Odor detection thresholds (ODTs) are used for assessing outdoor and indoor air quality. They are obtained experimentally by olfactometry and psychophysical methods, and large compilations are available in the literature. A non-linear regression equation was fitted to describe the ODT variability of...
