对97对成年男性双胞胎进行了对乙酸、异丁酸和2-仲丁基环己酮的嗅觉敏感性测试，以确定嗅觉变化在多大程度上是由基因决定的。数据分析显示嗅觉敏感性没有遗传的证据。然而，与气味感知显著相关的因素包括雪茄、烟斗和吸烟；身体肥胖;饮酒;还有糖尿病。
Olfactory sensitivity to acetic acid, isobutyric acid, and 2-sec-butyl-cyclohexanone was tested in 97 adult male twin pairs to determine the extent to which variation in odor perception was genetically determined. Analysis of the data revealed no evidence for heritability of olfactory sensitivity. However, factors significantly associated with odor perception included cigar, pipe, and cigarette smoking; body fatness; alcohol consumption; and diabetes mellitus.
