GERMANY: After years of collaborating with Prof. Dr. Hanns Hatt of Ruhr University Bochum, Symrise has demonstrated that odors can be “switched off” using certain aromatic substances. Symrise employs this principle of odor modulation in its Neofresh technology platform, which combats bad odors of all types. For example, Symrise has developed a fragrance that blocks the molecule trimethylamine, which gives off an unpleasant fishy smell, in a targeted manner.
In order to further expand the Neofresh platform, Symrise hopes to neutralize additional unpleasant odors at the receptor level, and to that end has formed a new partnership with ChemCom, a company that researches human olfactory receptors. With its “Biological Nose,” ChemCom possesses a technology that can imitate the human sense of smell and facilitate the search for suitable receptor-blockers. Symrise has a comprehensive range of raw materials containing fragrances that can potentially influence odor receptors and thus block bad odors.
