Desperately seeking the best antidote for the oral pain of capsaicin? Thanks to Justin Gaiser and John Hayes, the answer is right in the title of their recent Journal of Food Science publication: "Fat, protein, and temperature each contribute to reductions in capsaicin oral burn". After the oral distress subsides, readers can read about the study. Each evaluation began with assessors swishing a water-capsaicin solution in the mouth for 10 seconds, expectorating, waiting 10 seconds, swishing a palate cleanser in the mouth for 10 seconds, expectorating, then tracking oral burn for a further 90 seconds. Assessors indicated oral pain continuously on a general labelled magnitude scale for the full duration using the time-intensity method. Palate cleansers (warm water, cold water, high-protein yogurt, mango Italian ice, mango lassi, and vanilla ice cream) were selected to investigate the factors mentioned in the title. Lassi and ice cream had the trifecta (fat, protein, cold) and soothed the most pain. Burning to read this and other publications from members of the Compusense Academic Consortium? The antidote is here.

Quality

Quality

Quality test methods are used to evaluate a product based on its sensory attributes and overall consumer perception to ensure it meets certain standards of excellence and consistency. These methods provide a consumer-centric assessment of product quality, ensure consistency and adherence to quality standards and drive continuous improvement and customer satisfaction. Examples include, but are not limited to, Shelf Life, Degree of Difference,

Difference from Control, In/Out, etc.

Quality test methods are used to evaluate a product based on its key attributes to ensure it meets specific standards of excellence for consistency. These methods provide an internal assessment of the product quality to adhere to quality standards and achieve customer satisfaction. Examples include, but are not limited to, Shelf-Life, Degree of Difference, Difference from Control, and In & Out methods.
