Characterization of Metallic Flavor in Drinking Water: An Interdisciplinary Exploration through Sensory Science, Medicine, Health, and the Environment
… This research explored the many aspects of metallic flavor in drinking water through applications of sensory science, medicine, health, and the environment. Humans interact with their environment through the five senses and are often exposed to contaminants through multiple routes; oral …

Exploring Metallic Flavor Perception: Analysis of Human Salivary Proteins and the Use of the Iron-Binding Protein Lactoferrin in Reducing Metallic Off-Flavors
Metallic flavors are of concern for many industries including food, health, and water. Metallic off-flavor, induced by ferrous sulfate solution (10mg/L), and its remediation using pre- and post-rinse treatments of water (control) or metal chelators, were studied. Metal chelators included …

Biomarkers of Lipid Oxidation in the Oral Cavity
… secondary products of lipid oxidation reactions. Metallic flavor in food and beverages has been linked with oxidation of lipids in the oral cavity. Breath, an emerging medium for analysis of internal condition, is one means of measuring the metal-induced lipid oxidation responsible for this …

Modeling contaminant transport in polyethylene and metal speciation in saliva
… between contaminants and polymers. The metallic flavor of copper in drinking water influences the taste of water and can cause the taste problems for water utilities. The mechanism of metallic flavor caused by these metals is related to free or soluble ions. Free copper concentrations …

Macromolecular Reactions and Sensory Perception at the Air-Water-Human Interface
… to monitor drinking water to detect the off-flavors however an odor standard has been missing. Hexanal was studied with trained flavor profile analysis panels and was proposed as an ideal odor reference standard to be used for training and sensory assessment of water samples. Main focus was …

The Interaction of Iron with Proteins and Sugars in Biological Fluids and Beverages
… The existence of iron may not only cause metallic flavor, it may also deeply impact health of human and animals by interacting with constituents in the related biological fluids such as saliva and milk. The overall goal of this study is to investigate the taste interaction between iron and …
