Olfactory sensor array systems: the electronic nose

Article Abstract:

The human olfactory system is not well understood, although it is known it has several deficiencies. By analysing the mechanism associated with the sense of smell it has been possible to make electronic and chemical versions of the human nose, known as olfactory sensory array systems. An overview of the new electronic nose technology is presented, plus a description of an electronic nose developed by GEC-Marconi Materials Technology Ltd.'s Hirst Division.

Article Abstract:

Low-fat diets make people feel they are doing the right thing for good health. Yet according to a report from the American Medical Assn, the number of overweight adults is increasing. Many people blame this not on low-fat diets, but on their own weakness in not being faithful to the diets.
