The presence of an olfactory protein, specific for 2-isobutyl-3-methoxypyrazine, identified in cow olfactory mucosa, has been investigated in several species of all classes of vertebrates.

The results show that such protein is present only in some families of mammals, with no clear relationship to systematic position or to natural diet.
