Electroolfactograms were recorded in isolated olfactory epithelium of pigs, both females and castrated males, of various age. The boar pheromone, 5 alpha-androst-16-en-3-one, elicited negative electrical responses up to 2 mV in many preparations. The threshold response corresponded to as low as 10(-9) g of the pheromone on a filter paper. The specific anosmia to the boar pheromone was discovered in few preparations, where responses to the pheromone were absent and the sensitivity to common odour substances (butyl acetate, camphor, butyric acid, etc.) was unchanged.
在不同年龄段的雌性猪和去势雄性猪的离体嗅觉上皮中记录了嗅觉电图。公猪信息素5α-雄甾-16-烯-3-酮在许多标本中引发了高达2毫伏的负电反应。阈值反应对应的滤纸上该信息素低至10(-9)克。在少数标本中发现了对公猪信息素的特异性嗅觉缺失，这些标本对该信息素无反应，但对常见气味物质（乙酸丁酯、樟脑、丁酸等）的敏感性未变。
