Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

3. What is Aromatherapy
“Aromatherapy can be defined as the controlled use of essential oils to maintain
and promote physical, psychological, and spiritual wellbeing.” Gabriel Mojay
The Oldest Form of Treatment on Earth
“Aromatherapy” is derived from two words. Aroma - meaning fragrance /smell
and Therapy - meaning treatment…….hence it is a treatment by aroma
4. What are Essential Oils
• Essential oils are defensive or attractive volatile liquids and aromatic compounds
that are produced by the plants and distilled or pressed from plants for medicinal
purpose.
• E/O are extracted from flowers, seeds, leaves, stems, bark, resin, roots, berries or
fruit
• E/O can quickly penetrate the skin tissues and can circulate the body in 20 minutes
• E/O contains some of the most powerful anti-oxidants
• Each plant and its part has specific or unique scent or fragrance due to E/O
• E/O is 1000 times more powerful than fresh or dried herbs
7. How Aromatherapy works?
• Essential Oils are lipid soluble and hence they can
easily cross our blood brain barrier.
• They can interact directly with the neurotransmitter
receptors: Glycine, Dopamine, Serotonin and increases
the production of endorphins and antibodies that
boost our immune system.
• E/O also affect our hypothalamus which stimulates the
production of energy hormones (thyroid) and growth
hormones (youth and longetivity)
• They enter and leave the body efficiently, leaving no
toxins behind unlike chemical or drug.
8. How E/O works through the lungs
When E/O is inhaled
through the lungs it
is carried in the
bloodstream along
with oxygen filled
molecules that are
sent to the heart and
then pumped off to
the rest of the body.
LUNGS
9. How E/O works through the skin
When E/O is
applied to the skin
some molecules
are absorbed in
the skin pores and
eventually meet
up with the blood
vessels and are
transferred
through the body
via circulatory
system

53. Storing Essential Oils
• Store in a cool (not cold) place, where they are NOT
exposed to sunlight.
• Shelf life is about 36 months.
• Dilution in a carrier oil not in water
• Open bottles only for use and keep caps securely closed
• Pure unadulterated oils exist for very long time but will
eventually go bad due to oxidation
• Even in an inert atmosphere, possibility that EO molecules
react among themselves.
• Citrus oils - prone to degradation (high level of limonene
oxidizes relatively easily).
54. Adulteration
Purposeful adulteration of cheaper alternative
oils, by-products or non natural material with
the intent to reduce the cost
Forms of Adulteration:
1. Dilution
2. Isolation
3. Reconstitution
4. Substitution
5. Chemo types
55. How do we test & ensure the quality?
• Buyers Beware – Know your
supplier right
• Sensory Means
• Blotter Test
• Machine Test: GLC, Optical
Rotation, Solubility, Ref Index
• Storage : Sedimentation
Buyers Beware
