Psychiatry related information on ethyl butanoate

• To assess the relationship between sniff resistance and olfaction, ten subjects without nasal pathology or complaint were asked to estimate the perceived magnitude of the odorant, ethyl butyrate, at each of four concentrations and against each of four different resistances [1].

High impact information on ethyl butanoate

• Or22a maps to the ab3A neuron, which responds to ethyl butyrate [2].
• Evaluation of gas chromatograph packings for the separation of butyric acid from serum-catalyzed hydrolysis of ethyl butyrate [3].
• MEB [n-butyrate 2-(4-morpholinyl) ethyl butyrate hydrochloride], a histone deacetylase inhibitor and G1 blocker, has been shown to induce unresponsiveness in antigen-activated Th1 cells [4].
• A model strawberry flavor consisting of ethyl butanoate, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, (Z)-hex-3-enol, 2-methylbutanoic acid, 5-hexylhydro-2(3H)-furanone, and 3-methyl-3-phenylglycidic acid ethyl ester was added to unflavored, unsweetened yogurt that had different added sweeteners and hydrocolloids [5].
• Three independent mutant alleles of eag revealed reduced antennal responsiveness in adult flies to a subset of odorants, all having short aliphatic side chains: ethyl butyrate (EB), propionic acid, 2-butanone and ethyl acetate (manuscript submitted) [6].

Biological context of ethyl butanoate

• Proliferation was inhibited by 5 mM tert- butylacetate, phenylacetate, phenylbutyrate, 3-bromopropionate and ethyl butyrate without induction of hemoglobin synthesis. n - Butyramide was a stronger inhibitor of cell proliferation and a more effective inducer of hemoglobin synthesis than isobutyramide [7].

Anatomical context of ethyl butanoate

• Responses of 50 olfactory bulb neurons of the bullfrog to odorous solutions of ethyl n-butyrate were composed mainly of facilitation, inhibition and no response, whereas those of the same neurons to water were mainly of facilitation and delayed facilitation [8].
• The activity ratio (ethyl butyrate activity/monooleoylglycerol activity) was approx. 5 for microsomes and approx. 400 for carboxylesterase [9].
