Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC×GC) coupled with Mass Spectrometry (MS) is one of today's most powerful analytical platforms for detailed analysis of medium-to-high complexity samples. The column set usually consists of a long, conventional-inner-diameter first dimension ((1)D) (typically 15-30m long

Journal of insect physiology, 78, 33-46 (2015-05-06)
Phytophagous insects detect volatile compounds produced by host and non-host plants, using species-specific sets of olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs). To investigate the relationship between the range of host plants and the profile of ORNs, single sensillum recordings were carried out
