Zusammenfassung:There is provided a method for detecting at least one odor in a gas sample, the method comprising at least partially reducing an amount of water present in the gas sample; and detecting the presence or absence of at least one odor in the sample. There is also provided a method for reducing losses of sensitivity of at least one gas sensor adapted to detect and/or measure at least one odor in a gas sample, the method comprising at least partially reducing an amount of water present in the gas sample before contacting the sample with the at least one sensor. Apparatuses for detecting and/or measuring odors in a gas sample are also provided.
