[Receptor cells of different types and quantitative relations between them in the organ of smell of larval and adult specimens of acipenserid fishes].

Three types of olfactory cells: rod-like and cone-like (flagellar olfactory cells) and filamentous (microvillar olfactory cells), which have been described previously in adult Acipenseridae were found in the olfactory organ of the ten-days larval sturgeons (Acipenser güldenstädti), sevrugas (Acipenser stellatus) and sterlets (Acipenser ruthenus). The flagellar olfactory receptors appeared to predominate in both ten-days larvae and adults of the anadromous sturgeons and sevrugas, while the microvillar olfactory receptors predominate in freshwater sterlets in ten-days larvae as well in adults. The facts obtained confirm the idea that the rod-like, cone-like and filamentous olfactory cells are independent types of olfactory receptors. The different ratios of these cells in the olfactory organs of anadromous and fresh-water Acipenseridae may be a result of their ecological adaptations.

[Smell and taste disorders].

Disorders of the chemical senses are frequent. They can severely affect our lives. Appropriate testing is needed to determine the nature of the patient's complaints. Because many chemosensory disorders are secondary to a wide variety of diseases, olfactory or gustatory complaints may help in establishing certain differential diagnoses, e.g. in Alzheimer's disease. In turn, treatment of the underlying diseases may restore chemosensory function in these patients. Future developments appear possible in light of the availability of standardised tools for the assessment of chemosensory dysfunction.

[When necrosis smells of heating oil... what damage fuels can do].

The subcutaneous injection of heating oil or other crude oil distillates are rare injuries. In the present case, a 26-year-old man injected heating oil subcutaneously into the left cubital region. He then developed massive swelling, pain, local necrosis and abscess, accompanied by fever and leukocytosis. Radical surgical debridement and open wound treatment successfully stopped the necrotic process. Subsequently, a mesh-graft was applied to the wound, which healed with no residual defects. The course of the present case, and the results of a review of the literature on similar occurrences involving mineral oil suggest early extensive debridement of such injuries.
