Description:
Computerized pattern recognition techniques can be applied to the study of complex chemical communication systems. Analysis of high resolution gas chromatographic concentration patterns of the major volatile components of the scent marks of a South American primate, Saguinus fuscicollis, demonstrates that the concentration patterns can be used to predict the gender and subspecies of unknown donors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smith, A B 3rd -- Belcher, A M -- Epple, G -- Jurs, P C -- Lavine, B -- 5 T32 NSO7176-03/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1985 Apr 12;228(4696):175-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3975636" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
