German term

Markierungspolster

German to English Science
From an old article about the olfactory ability of rodents, and the amines that form as bacteria break down rat urine.

"..., werden vermutlich auch im alten Harn und im Markierungspolster Desaminierungsvorgänge einsetzen und dadurch Aldehyde und Fettsäuren als weitere Abbaustufen entstehen."
Proposed translations (English)

marking glands

checked under "rats mark" and found that they mark not only using urine, but also special glands...Cats and apes have them, too. Now I know more about rats than I care for!
