  • Title: The underwater electro-olfactogram: a tool for the study of the sense of smell of marine fishes.
    Author: Silver WL, Caprio J, Blackwell JF, Tucker D.
    Journal: Experientia; 1976 Sep 15; 32(9):1216-7. PubMed ID: 971769.
    Abstract:
    Recording the olfactory receptor activity of marine fishes presents problems due to the shunting of the electrical signals by the highly conductive sea water, which results in significant signal loss. By recording the large signal-to-noise ratio D. C. potentials using the underwater electro-olfactogram (EOG), we were able to study olfactory receptor properties of freshwater and marine fishes in a comparable manner.
