Figure 1. The model can reproduce all types of odor response to mixtures.

Figure 1

In each panel is reported a typical set of odor response to single odors (FU and FV) and their binary mixture (FU+V). Unless otherwise noted odors were mixed at a fixed concentration ratio of r = 0.2. Eqs. (3) and (5) were used with the following parameters for each panel; suppression: nU = 1.5, nV = 3.5, ηU = 1.7, ηV = 0.7, KU = 0.2, KV = 0.2; synergy: nU = 3.6, nV = 19.6, ηU = 1.7, ηV = 1.1, KU = 3.16 ⋅ 10−4, KV = 10−4, r = 1; overshadowing/hypoadditivity: nU = 3.5, nV = 0.5, ηU = 0.7, ηV = 1.7, KU = 0.2, KV = 0.2; inhibition: nU = 4.5, nV = 0.5, ηU = 1.3, ηV = 0.3, KU = 0.2, KV = 0.2; overshadowing/suppression: nU = 0.5, nV = 10, ηU = 16, ηV = 0.95, KU = 0.51 ⋅ 10−3, KV = 0.9 ⋅ 10−2, r = 1.6; overshadowing: nU = 0.5, nV = 10, ηU = 16, ηV = 0.95, KU = 0.8 ⋅ 10−2, KV = 0.9 ⋅ 10−2, r = 2 ⋅ 10−4.
