Characterization of Metallic Flavor in Drinking Water: An Interdisciplinary Exploration through Sensory Science, Medicine, Health, and the Environment
… 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 intake of trace metal contaminants through drinking water is a …

Sodium binding as measured by sodium-23 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and its influence on saltiness perception as determined by sensory analysis
… scaling (MDS), a non-traditional sensory testing method, and Decision Boundary (DB) theory, a comparative judgement theory never before tested with chemosensory stimuli, were studied to determine their efficiencies and applications to sensory science.

EFFECTS OF EXTERNAL FACTORS ON CONSUMER’S PERCEPTION OF FOOD
Consumer’s sensory perception of food is a complicated process, with many factors from diverse sensory modalities involved. These factors play a role in determining how we perceive food overall, and thereby, our behaviors and food consumption. This dissertation discussed the effects of external …

Application of Automated Facial Expression Analysis and Facial Action Coding System to Assess Affective Response to Consumer Products
Sensory and consumer sciences seek to comprehend the influences of sensory perception on consumer behaviors such as product liking and purchase. The food industry assesses product liking through hedonic testing but often does not capture affectual response as it pertains to product-generated (PG) …

Combining foods, combining tools: Understanding in vivo aroma release and sensory perception of composite foods
… that have attempted to relate aroma release and sensory perception are far from mimicking the real consumption context, as assessments often do not consider food oral processing during mastication and are performed on single or model foods. A multidisciplinary approach integrating in vivo aroma …

Translating Sensory Perceptions: Existing and Emerging Methods of Collecting and Analyzing Flavor Data
Food flavor is hugely important in motivating food choice and eating behavior. Unfortunately for research and communication about flavor, many languages' flavor vocabularies are notoriously variable and must be aligned before data collection using training or after the fact by researchers. This …
