COMPOSITIONS EFFECTIVE IN ALTERING THE 0005) A number of methods have been developed for PERCEPTION OF MALODOR ameliorating the effects of malodors. A general background of various innovative methods in the field of overcoming FIELD AND BACKGROUND OF THE malodors may be found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,091,511, U.S. Pat.

No. 5,500,138, U.S. Pat. No. 5,534,165, U.S. Pat. and particularly to a composition that alters the perception of No. 5,531,910, U.S. Pat. No. 5,539,034, U.S. Pat.

Scents detected by the sense of 07853 and references cited therein. The methods described Smell can inform the organism whether a given environment therein generally involve the use of chemical compounds is attractive or repulsive. Attractive environments identified and compositions either to mask malodors or to neutralize by smell include potential mates and edible foods. Repulsive malodors at the source. environments identified by smell include harmful items 0006 Neutralizing odors at the source generally involves resembling food, danger sensed by a member of the cohort, eliminating microorganisms responsible for the odor (e.g., Volatile poisons, excrement, rot and death.
