Evaluation of sweet taste perception in habitual and non-habitual consumers of low-calorie sweeteners
… to 50% of adults in the US consume low-calorie sweeteners (LCS), with increased consumption associated with higher body weight and an intent to lose weight. Previously thought to be metabolically inert, recent findings suggest that LCS may be impacting glucose regulation and could cause …

Tastant interactions with model membranes
A wide range of compounds elicit the sweet taste response but currently it is not known what causes this response. In Chapter 3 a number of sweeteners, and representatives of all the taste groups are investigated using NMR spectroscopy. The T1 relaxation times of the tastants were determined in …

MODULATION OF TASTE PERCEPTION AS A POSSIBLE STRATEGY IN OBESITY TREATMENT: NEW PERSPECTIVES FOR PRECISION NUTRITION
Taste and gustatory perception, defined as the ability to perceive and recognize a given taste stimulus, play a guiding role in an individual's food choices and food intake. Physiologically, the ability to taste is linked to the presence of receptors and channels on the tongue, the main organ …

QUANTIFICATION OF ASPARTAME IN LOZENGES AND TABLETOP SWEETENERS VIA MULTIPLE PARAMETER MANIPULATION BY USING DISSOLUTION STUDIES WITH UV-VIS, ULTRA-HPLC, AND MATHEMATICAL DRUG MODELING
… is a well-known artificial sweetener that has been around since the 1900s and is considered 200 times sweeter than sugar. Its main purpose is to serve as a sugar substitute in “diet” food and beverages. It is also consumer friendly by having a high availability, and an …

Influences of Autism Spectrum Disorder on Sensory and Emotional Responses to Smell and Taste Cues
… sensory and emotional responses to smell and taste stimuli. Participants with ASD reported abnormal and non-uniform sensory experiences, which combined with environmental factors, influenced their food choices and eating behavior. Odor identification and odor discrimination ability were …

Physical, Perceptual, and Bioactive Components of Chocolate
… more toothpacking, had longer melt time, less sweet taste, and less cream flavor. These samples had significantly rougher surfaces, less grains in a specific area, and a larger grain size. Volatile release was significantly impacted by storage condition, most likely due to increased solid fat …

The Taste of Blood
… to reproduce, she must selectively seek the taste of blood and ignore the sweet taste of nectar. How does she flexibly modify her preference for the taste of blood to select the feeding program that satisfies her current metabolic needs? Here we investigated the syringe-like blood-feeding …

Epidemiology of and resistance to kernel infection of sweet corn by Fusarium moniliforme
Although sweet corn (Zea mays L.) with the shrunken-2 (sh2) endosperm mutation has broad consumer appeal due to its sweet taste and long refrigerator life, its cultivation has been plagued by emergence and seedling vigor problems. The high sucrose content of sh2 kernels, accumulated at the expense …

Dietary carbohydrates influence the structure and function of the intestinal alpha-glucosidases
… to enhance its digestive property. Study on the sweet taste receptor subunits (T1R2 and T1R3) by qRT-PCR showed that the expression of T1R2 and T1R3 increased in presence of maltose compared to glucose. It appeared also that maltooligosaccharides may signal other events in small intestine …

Aktivierung des humanen Süßgeschmacksrezeptors im zellbasierten Testsystem
Zellbasierte heterologe Expressionssysteme bieten ein einfaches und schnelles Verfahren, um neue Süßstoffe oder Süßverstärker zu finden. Unter Verwendung eines solchen Testsystems, konnte ich in Zusammenarbeit mit der Symrise AG, Holzminden und dem Institut für Pflanzenbiochemie in Halle/Saale die …

Impact of roasting on the physicochemical characteristics of cacao beans and dark chocolate flavor profile
… revealed that roasting impacted aroma, texture, taste, and aroma-by-mouth characteristics in dark chocolate. Unroasted samples received higher intensity ratings for vinegar and cranberry aroma, sour and sweet taste, and cranberry aroma-by-mouth. In contrast, roasted chocolate was characterized by …

Investigation of thermal decomposition as the cause of the loss of crystalline structure in sucrose, glucose, and fructose
… they contribute to the final products, such as sweet taste, flavor, texture, color, shelf-life (e.g., flavor retention via encapsulation), and carrier function of active pharmaceutical components. These quality attributes directly depend on the processing protocol employed, in particular heating …

Potential metabolic effect of sucralose following an oral glucose load in subjects with obesity and normal-weight subjects
… sucralose, the most commonly used non-nutritive sweetener (NNS), affects glucose metabolism in people is unclear. It has been reported that, when consumed acutely before an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), sucralose enhances insulinemic responses and decreases insulin sensitivity in subjects …

Identification of central circuitry components mediating anorexigenic properties of oxytocin
… intake motivated by palatability related to sweet taste. OT’s anorexigenic effects on both aspects of ingestive behavior are mediated by the OT receptor (OTr) expressed broadly in the brain, however, our understanding of which specific sites relay anorexigenic actions of OT is limited. Thus …

Neuroanatomical Maps and Taste Reactivity to Sweet, Umami, and Bitter Taste in the PBN of C57BL/6J Mice
… Humans can distinguish at least five different taste qualities, sour, salty, bitter, sweet, and umami (the savory taste of certain amino acids). In neuroscience research, behavioral testing is used to measure the ability of rodents (including inbred mice) to discriminate between the different …

Conformational engineering of human chemokine receptors and HIV-1 Env using deep mutational scanning
Experimental analysis of protein mutations is classically a ‘small data’ problem. A limited number of mutants are made at sites of suspected importance, and the activity of each variant is individually tested. However, by combining directed evolution and deep sequencing with site- saturation …
