C R C Critical Reviews in Food Technology, 1972
The recent literature in human taste research is critically reviewed. Special emphasis is placed on the qualities of taste and on taste intensity measurements. The underlying theme throughout the review is taste research methods. Phenomena receiving special attention are taste adaptation and taste mixtures.

Mammalian Bitter Taste Perception
2009Bitter taste in mammals is achieved by a family of approximately 30 bitter taste receptor genes. The main function of bitter taste is to protect the organism against the ingestion of, frequently bitter, toxic food metabolites. The field of taste research has advanced rapidly during the last several years.

Genetics of Human Taste Perception
Journal of Dental Research, 2004Genetic approaches are rapidly yielding new information about our sense of taste. This information comes from both molecular studies of genes encoding taste receptors and other taste-signaling components, and from studies of inherited variation in taste abilities.

Taste Intensity Perception in Aging
Journal of Gerontology, 1986Men (n = 91) and women (n = 79) between the ages of 23 and 88 years made cross-modal matches of distance to the perceived intensity of aqueous solutions representing the four basic taste qualities. Traditional analysis, which characterizes age-group performance in terms of the slope of a group's psychophysical function, yielded results consistent with ...

CABI Reviews, 2010
Abstract An obesity epidemic is spreading rapidly across the world, especially in children. It constitutes a major risk in serious diet-related chronic diseases, thus decreasing life expectancy. The origin of the obesity epidemic is clearly dependent on multiple parameters. Increased consumption of more energy-dense, nutrient-poor foods might

2016
The pathway from the taste buds through the brainstem to the brain and cerebral cortex is described. In the brain and cortex the taste pathway merges with the pathways for smell and mouth feel. The taste qualities are muted in wine compared with food. The sensory pathways are particularly developed in the human, making the human more adapted for flavor

Taste perception and integration
2016IntroductionThe sense of taste is essential for the evaluation of food quality. It allows, at the level of the oral cavity, to evaluate the caloric content of the consumed food, to detect the presence of salt, and protect us against the ingestion of toxic molecules.

Oral and extra-oral taste perception
Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2013Of the five basic taste qualities, the molecular mechanisms underlying sweet, bitter, and umami (savory) taste perception have been extensively elucidated, including the taste receptors and downstream signal transduction molecules. Recent studies have revealed that these taste-related molecules play important roles not only in the oral cavity but also ...

Taste perception after lingual nerve repair
Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2000This retrospective study evaluates patients' perception of taste after lingual nerve injury and repair. It is hypothesized that return of taste is a distinct neurophysiologic phenomenon related to specialized taste physiology and it does not correlate with specific, objective sensory return.During 1995 to 1996, 30 patients underwent microsurgical ...
