Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to treat odors which are difficult to measure, model and analyze as digital information, we have researched on development of basic technology of odor image sensor and analysis technology of odor quality. Following results are successfully attained; host molecules which selectively responding to odor molecules, acceptor peptide synthesis, selective extraction technology of odorants and medical applications, visualization of odor flow and traces as multispectral images, fluorescence probe visualization film and odor composition analysis of ingredients, development of odor visualization film by molecular imprinting polymer, technology to characterize odor quality by olfactory odor map on olfactory bulb, technology to predict odor quality by machine learning by molecular parameter, and intuitive odor quality presentation methods by relationship graphs.
