VISUAL CUES EFFECTS ON TEMPERATURE PERCEPTION
… arises between the visual feedback and the temperature of an object. This study focused on the quantifiable RTs along with the qualitative feedback of the participants. It was hypothesized that when the information of the visual and temperature stimuli are incongruent (blue-warm or …

Drosophila TRPA1 controls thermotactic behavior
Temperature perception is an intricate process, essential for survival of many organisms. Temperatures far outside of the preferred range are usually harmful and are perceived as noxious (or painful), thus encouraging the animal to change its location or behavior. However, animals also have …

Melatonin administration during the follicular phase and early pregnancy to minimize seasonal infertility in swine
… in response to changing photoperiod and hot temperature. Perception of photoperiod through the pineal gland alters patterns of melatonin which modulate the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and function of the ovary to control reproduction. Seasonal infertility problems are then at least partially …

Kryodentalstimulation zur Objektivierung kältereizinduzierter, psychovegetativer Reaktionen
… using isolated horse teeth. This showed that the temperature inside the teeth declined on average by -10° C after cooling for 60 s. This therefore proved the efficiency of the stimulator objectively. In first experiments on voluntary test subjects, it was shown that this performance sufficed to …

Temperature Effects on Drinking Water Odor Perception
… directional difference testing to determine if temperature affected odor perception when presented with two water samples. Following directional difference testing, panelists used FPA and evaluated water samples that contained odorants at either 25°C or 45°C. Samples containing geosmin cooled to …
