Page 547
Zinc nanoparticles of 2 nm in diameter contain 40–300 atoms. Viswaprakash et al. isolated such particles from blood samples. When added in femptomolar to picomolar concentrations to odorant vapor pulses used to stimulate isolated rat septal olfactory epithelium, zinc nanoparticles strongly enhanced odorant-induced responses of olfactory sensory neurons as assessed by electroolfactogram and whole-cell patch clamp. Zinc nanoparticles alone or other metal nanoparticles mixed with the odorant
