Odorant metabolism of the olfactory cleft mucus in idiopathic olfactory impairment patients and healthy volunteers

Background It remains unclear whether the metabolic activity of nasal mucus in the olfactory and respiratory areas is different. Moreover, age‐ and olfaction‐related changes may affect metabolism. Methods Hexanal, octanal, and 2‐methylbutanal were selected for in vitro metabolism analysis and compar...
