Contribution of the Temporal Dominance of Sensations (TDS) method to the sensory description of subtle differences in partially dealcoholized red win…

2009

Abstract In this study, effect of partial alcohol reduction on the sensory modification of red wines was investigated. A Merlot and a Syrah wine were partially dealcoholized using reverse osmosis technique to span a range of three different alcohol contents (14–10%) by grape variety. Preliminary triangle tests indicated the existence of very slight differences between the dealcoholized wines of the study. Therefore, adapted descriptive methodologies had to be used. In a first step, wines were described with a comparative sensory profile by 16 trained panellists on 15 sensory attributes. Then, the same panellists profiled the wines with the TDS technique, which consists in identifying and ra…

Exploring minerality of Burgundy Chardonnay wines: a sensory approach with wine experts and trained panellists

2013

Background and Aims The use of minerality as a wine descriptor has increased in the last few years. Minerality always suggests high quality and evokes a link between wine and the soil. The sensory meaning of minerality, however, is not yet clearly understood. The present study was designed to understand how wine experts conceptualise minerality and to explore whether they can judge wine minerality in a consensual way. Methods and Results Experts carried out an orthonasal free sorting task on 16 Chardonnay wines. Afterwards, they rated their mineral character according to two conditions: orthonasally and on the palate while wearing a nose-clip. The experts also answered a questionnaire in wh…

Fruit Quality Traits of Two Apricot Cultivars

2010

In this trial we evaluated physical and chemical fruit quality traits and sensory profile of two late-ripening apricot cultivars ‘Vitillo’ and ‘Pellecchiella’. Fruits were harvested at full maturation in three different pickings, at 4 day intervals, to ensure the same fruit quality. To verify quality among different pickings, weight, diameter, soluble solid content, titratable acidity, pH, colour were recorded. To describe and quantify the sensory characteristics of apricot fruits a panel of 10 judges generated 16 descriptors. For each of these attributes judges assigned a score from 1 to 9. Qualitative and sensory data for each attribute were submitted to one way Analysis of Variance (ANOV…

281 CHARACTERISTIC SENSORY PROFILE IN FABRY PATIENTS

2007

Indicadores tempranos (0-36 meses) de riesgo de trastorno del espectro autista. Un estudio de revisión.

2018

La prevalencia del trastorno del espectro autista (TEA) ha aumentado de manera muy notable en los últimos años debido fundamentalmente a un aumento del conocimiento sobre el mismo por parte de los profesionales responsables de su identificación y/o diagnóstico.El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar una revisión de los artículos publicados en 2018 que se han propuesto identificar entre los 0 y 36 meses de vida predictores fiables de la posterior aparición del TEA.Se realizó una búsqueda en PsycInfo en la que se localizaron 8 estudios empíricos diseñados para evaluar el poder predictivo de estos indicadores tempranos.En estos estudios se identificaron diferentes síntomas que se cons…

Reply: Sensory profile in primary restless legs syndrome and restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy

2010

Sir, We wish to thank the editor for giving us the opportunity to respond to this letter. We appreciated reading that Drs Gemignani and Vitetta think our study (Bachmann et al. , 2010) provides support for the differential diagnosis of primary and secondary restless legs syndrome (RLS) associated with small fibre neuropathy, when comparing the sensory profiles of these groups of patients for the first time. Dr Gemignani recently wrote ‘A general consensus on the proposed criteria for the diagnosis of small fibre neuropathy has not been established’ (Gemignani, 2010 b ). This already applies for small fibre neuropathy without complicating RLS; however, for the constellation of RLS with small…

RELACIÓN ENTRE EL PROCESAMIENTO SENSORIAL Y LA SEVERIDAD DE LA SINTOMATOLOGÍA EN UNA MUESTRA DE NIÑOS CON TEA

2014

Abstract:RELATION BETWEEN SENSORY PROCESSING AND SEVERITY OF SYMPTOMS IN A SAMPLE OF CHILDREN WITH ASDThe new DSM-5 criteria include the alterations of sensory perception as a new diagnostic criterion to consider in the ASD population. Considering the inclusion of this new approach, the purpose of this study is to compare the features of sensory processing among a group of children (from 5 to 8 years old) with and without ASD. In addition to this, in the case of the ASD group, possible relationships between the sensory processing and the severity of symptoms, assessed by the GARS-2, are analyzed. To do this, the parents of 84 children (41 with ASD diagnosis and 43 with typical development),…

Creation of a food taste database using an in-home profile method

2013

Poster (1 page) ; http://www.pangborn2013.com/; International audience; The purpose of this study was to create a food taste database using an innovative in-home profile method and to have an overview on the sensory sapid world we face in our diet. The intensity of salty, sweet, acid and bitter tastes were scored using universal scales proposed within the Spectrum™ method (Muñoz and Civille, 1992) and newly developed scales for umami taste and fattiness. The in-home taste profile method was composed of two phases. The first phase consisted in an intensive training in laboratory (55 h). The second one was the in-home measurements phase (8 months) during which 12 panellists had to rate the ta…

Sensory testing in new product development: working with children

2015

Abstract This chapter aims at briefly reviewing applications of sensory descriptive testing methods with children, as well as their limits in relation to the cognitive development of children. Children’s sensory perceptions and preferences may differ from those of adults, which may make working directly with children a must for successful product development, at least at some stages of product development. However, most reported studies with children have characterized their preferences. Some studies have used discrimination tests and ranking tasks to gain knowledge about differences among products, or about sensory abilities development. A much smaller number of studies have involved child…
