General description

Amyl acetate is an aliphatic ester that occurs naturally in banana fruit.[1] It may be one of the odor volatiles produced by fungi such as Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium species.[2]

Application

Amyl acetate is a fruity odor compound that can be used as an attractant (component) in nanoemulsion formulation used to trap fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster).[3]
Banana essence. Used as test odorant in studies of olfactory function and in studies of the psychosocial effects of odor.

Ca2+/calmodulin-mediated negative feedback is a prototypical regulatory mechanism for Ca2+-permeable ion channels. In olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs), such regulation on the cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel is considered a major mechanism of OSN adaptation. To determine the role of Ca2+/calmodulin desensitization
