Olfactory Desensitization

Olfactory Desensitization is a physiological phenomenon in which prolonged or repeated exposure to an odorant leads to a diminished sensory response in the olfactory system, distinguishing it from other forms of sensory adaptation by its specific dependence on receptor-level mechanisms and temporal dynamics within olfactory signal transduction.
