title: [Functional characteristics of the human olfactory analyzer and methods for its study].
abstract: Different methods of studying of the human olfactory system are considered in connection with its anatomo-physiological peculiarities. The character and ways of stimulus delivery (open or closed), optimum time of stimulation and influence of odour concentration upon the emotional response have been considered. The methods of registration of the provoked olfactorial responses, especially based on the recording of the brain potentials, somatic and vegetative indexes are discussed. The advantages and deficiencies of these methods and the spheres of their application are examined. A conclusion on the necessity of the unification and standartisation of the modern methods of olfactometry in man have been drawn.
