Matrix-Dependent Sweet-Sour Psychophysics: gLMS and Time-Intensity of Sugar Alcohol-Acid Mixture in Liquids and Tablets. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrTablets showed > 79% steeper sourness growth than liquids by power law. Malic acid yielded steeper sourness growth than citric acid in most matrices and xylitol matrix yielded balanced perception with near‐unity sourness exponents. Time‐intensity parameters provide actionable targets for controlling sweetness‐sourness balance.
