Effect of N-methyl-formimino-methylester on the vomeronasal neuroepithelium of mice

B Rehn et al. Cell Tissue Res. 1982.

Abstract

N-methyl-formimino-methylester (MFM), a highly volatile chemical substance, causes massive, transient sensory-cell degeneration in the main, but not in the vomeronasal olfactory sensory epithelium of mice. After MFM-treatment it appears possible to study the accessory olfactory system after chemical "deafferentation" of the main system.
