Too Stressed to Sense: Modern Life and Our Sense of Taste and Smell

Though stress has long been associated with physical and cognitive impairments, recent research suggests that it can also play a key role in how we taste and smell.

Heterocyclic Compounds in Flavors and Fragrances Part Ill. Pyridine and Derivatives

During the last two decades the role of heterocyclic compounds in food flavors has been reviewed by several authors (18, 78, 79, 117-122). While furans (66), pyrroles (68), thiophenes (61), thiazoles (62, 63, 120), oxazoles (65, 57), Iactones (64), pyrazines (55, 56) and their reduced systems were periodically treated, surprisingly, pyridines which are among the most widely distributed volatile flavor compounds have not been described in detail (69). Therefore, the purpose of this review is to fill this gap.

Stability of Citral-Containing and Citralless Lemon Oils in Flavor Emulsions and Beverages

The storage stability of lemon oil treated to remove citral has not been reported. This investigation was conducted to compare the stabilities of citral-containing and citralless lemon emulsions (EC and ECL) and beverages (BC and BCL) during storage at different temperatures by both gas chromatographic and sensory analyses.

Sensory Evaluation: Analytical and Affective Testing

The test objective will determine the type of panelist, methodology, appropriate level of statistical risk to endure and how to interpret results to provide an actionable recommendation. All sensory testing can be defined under two categories: Affective Testing and Analytical Testing.
