Preferred Attribute Elicitation (PAE) in the Sensory Descriptive Analysis of Foods: A Deep Comprehensive Review of the Method Steps, Application, Challenges, and Trends. [PDF]

Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf
ABSTRACT Descriptive analysis (DA) is the gold standard for sensory profiling due to its robustness and reliability. However, its high cost, time demand, and labor intensity limit routine applications in the food industry. Rapid Sensory Profiling Techniques (RSPTs) have emerged as faster, less resource‐intensive alternatives to address these challenges.
