Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 55(9), 3599-3604 (2007-04-07)
Interactions of the model flavor compound 2-nonanone with individual milk proteins, whey protein isolate (WPI), and sodium caseinate in aqueous solutions were investigated. A method to quantify the free 2-nonanone was developed using headspace solid-phase microextraction followed by gas chromatography

Developmental cell, 5(4), 621-633 (2003-10-11)
The mechanisms by which the diverse functional identities of neurons are generated are poorly understood. C. elegans responds to thermal and chemical stimuli using 12 types of sensory neurons. The Otx/otd homolog ttx-1 specifies the identities of the AFD thermosensory

The Journal of biological chemistry, 255(18), 8503-8508 (1980-09-25)
The binding of 2-nonanone to bovine serum albumin exhibited positive cooperativity at low molal ratios of binding, indicating stabilization of the hydrophobic binding sites at low concentrations of 2-nonanone. The degree of cooperativity was affected by the type of anion

The enhancement of sensory responses after prior exposure to a stimulus is a fundamental mechanism of neural function in animals. Its molecular basis, however, has not been studied in as much depth as the reduction of sensory responses, such as
