  • Patent number: 11786164
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an apparatus (100) for quantitative assessment of olfactory dysfunctions and neurocognitive deficits, the apparatus includes first filters (104-1) adapted to sterilize air received from an air pump, a second filter (106) filter odor molecules from the air, a manifold (108) adapted to split the sterilized air into a plurality of channels, at least one channel carries the sterilized air to a first MFC (110) and adjacent channels carry sterilized air to second MFCs (112). Each container in a reservoir (114) filled with an odorant different from adjacent containers, and a nozzle (118) adapted to receive the odorized air from the reservoir that is inhaled by a subject through an odor delivery unit (124), based on degree of variation in volumetric concentration of the odorants, quantitative assessment of olfactory dysfunction is determined.
