Fenugreek is one of the well-known legumes, used for its antimicrobial, antioxidant, nutritional, and pharmaceutical properties. It was aimed to obtain coffee by blending microwave (600 W)-roasted fenugreek with arabica determine best roasting conditions (2 4 min), ratios (20% 50%) seeds consumer sensory analysis. A voluntary, minimal-trained panel 80 panelists conducted. Coffee from roasted Ar...

The mechanism of temperature sensation is far less understood than the sensory response to other environmental stimuli such as light, odor, and taste. Thermotaxis behavior in C. elegans requires the ability to discriminate temperature differences as small as approximately 0.05 degrees C and to memorize the previously cultivated temperature. The AFD neuron is the only major thermosensory neuron ...

To determine the type and extent of neural rearrangements that are made during functional differentiation of circuits for salt taste processing, we determined receptive field size and salt response characteristics of second-order taste cells in 3 age groups of sheep. Neurophysiological recordings were made from single cells in the nucleus of the solitary tract (NST) in fetal, perinatal, and pos...

Introduction: Taste buds are the peripheral organs of gustation and located mainly in tongue epithelium palate. further sample chemical makeup foods beverages for nutrient content, palatability, potential toxicity. On other hand, smell acts as a major factor mostly functions involuntarily thereby identify protecting from toxic insult. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an ongoing viral ...

Dental and medical doctors well report the oral manifestations of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Knowledge also provides a scope for detecting asymptomatic or presymptomatic COVID-19 patients. Predominant reports stated dry mouth, loss taste sensation, ulcerations.[1] [2] Recently, an article has reported specific changes observed in tongue during infection as “COVID tongue.” Th...

Virgin olive oil (VOO) has unique chemical characteristics among all other vegetable oils which are of paramount importance for human health. VOO constituents also responsible its peculiar flavor, a complex sensation due to combination aroma, taste, texture, and mouthfeel or trigeminal sensations. flavor depends primarily on the concentration nature volatile phenolic compounds present in can ch...

Objective:

 Materials Methods:Study design setting: It is descriptive cross sectional study which was conducted on 250 both male females participants who had suffered from COVID-19 over duration 6 months Islamic International Dental Hospital Islamabad. Participants were Rawalpindi. Questio...

The chemosensory functions of taste and smell play a vital role in human physiology. They determine the flavor and palatability of foods and beverages, the selection of nutrients essential for life, and the warning of fire, toxic vapors, and spoiled foodstuffs. The hedonic role of chemosensation is experienced daily by everyone. Alterations in these pleasurable sensations have serious implicati...

Background: Aronia berries (chokeberries) have very high levels of health-promoting polyphenols yet cause "choking" sensations due to bitterness and astringency. We aimed to describe oral sensations and palatability of aronia juice by variations in harvest time and oral sensory phenotype. Sensory blocking combinations were tested to improve juice acceptability. Methods: Ripe aronia berries were...
