Sensory Preference of Drinking Water Influenced by Subthreshold‐Level Mineral Salt Mixtures
A distinct preference plateau was identified, with liking maximized near the salts' absolute thresholds. Sweetness promotion and astringency suppression were the primary sensory mechanisms driving preference in these mineral salt mixtures. A predictive model pinpointed the optimal blend (0.92 mg/L KCl; 0.60 mg/L MgSO4), providing a practical, data ...

Herein, quercetin is loaded onto graphene oxide, and its biological properties are evaluated in vitro. The results show that the graphene oxide/quercetin nanocomposite reduces the expression of inflammation‐related genes and enhances fibroblast cell migration. Additionally, it exhibits antibacterial properties.
