Aktuel forskning

More recently I have worked on evaluating human oral sensitivity, including PROP sensitivity, lingual tactile sensitivity, the density and diameter of fungiform papillae etc. Consumer preferences of dairy drinks have been tested in order to see whether a different oral sensitivity among Asian and Caucasian consumers would influence the texture preferences.
