These vegetables absorb sulfur in the earth, which helps form a class of volatile organic molecules called amino acid sulfoxides.
Evidence suggests that males may rely more on contact phermones than volatile airborne molecules in the identification of conspecifics.
A volatile organic molecule is a carbon-based molecule that evaporates when you heat it.
We see these volatile organic molecules from wood as smoke rising from the fire.
Few volatile molecules have biological activity at low concentrations.
Only volatile polar molecules can enter and exit the membrane pores.
In most electronic noses, each sensor is sensitive to all volatile molecules but each in their specific way.
This technique is widely used in mass spectrometry, particularly for gases and volatile organic molecules.
The spray contains pungent-smelling volatile molecules which the insect gets from its food plant.
The wood consists of lots of carbon, some "volatile organic molecules," and water.
