Development of the Relationship between Odor Intensity and Threshold Dilution Ratio for Swine Units
The following models of odor intensity for swine units were evaluated: the Weber-Fechner law model, the power law model, the Stevens model, and the Beidler model. Data were collected from four swine rooms (farrowing, finisher, gestation, and nursery) and odor threshold dilution ratios were measured by a panel using a dynamic forced-choice olfactometer. Odor intensity scales were determined by eight panelists using a six-point category scale method. A nonlinear parameter estimation method was used to estimate the parameters in each of the models. The widely used Weber-Fechner law did not adequately fit the data of odor intensity and threshold. Both the power law and the Beidler models described the data effectively, but the Beidler model showed the best fit of the data and was used as the model to represent the relationship between odor intensity and threshold dilution ratio for swine buildings.
