Academic Consortium Publications for September 2023

Academic Consortium Publications for September 2023

Pico-Munyoz et al. (2023) conducted a study to investigate relationships between sensory perceptions of thirst (thirstiness, dry mouth, desire for water), physiological hydration measures (oral mucosa hydration, body hydration), and four stimuli (nothing, water, gum-based thickened water, starch-based thickened water). They found that water and thickened water stimuli reduced thirst more than nothing, but water was more liked and reduced dry mouth sensations more than the thickened waters. Thickened water is often administered to persons with dysphagia, so improving its formulation could deliver better hydration. This is one of several fine papers published in September 2023 by members of the Compusense Academic Consortium.

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.
