Visalli M, Galmarini MV. Multi-attribute temporal descriptive methods in sensory analysis applied in food science: A systematic scoping review. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e13294. [PMID: 38284596 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
Among descriptive sensory evaluation methods, temporal methods have a wide audience in food science because they make it possible to follow perception as close as possible to the moment when sensations are perceived. The aim of this work was to describe 30 years of research involving temporal methods by mapping the scientific literature using a systematic scoping review. Thus, 363 research articles found from a search in Scopus and Web of Science from 1991 to 2022 were included. The extracted data included information on the implementation of studies referring to the use of temporal methods (details related to subjects, products, descriptors, research design, data analysis, etc.), reasons why they were used and the conclusions they allowed to be drawn. Metadata analysis and critical appraisal were also carried out. A quantitative and qualitative synthesis of the results allowed the identification of trends in the way in which the methods were developed, refined, and disseminated. Overall, a large heterogeneity was noted in the way in which the temporal measurements were carried out and the results presented. Some critical research gaps in establishing the validity and reliability of temporal methods have also been identified. They were mostly related to the details of implementation of the methods (e.g., almost no justification for the number of consumers included in the studies, absence of report on panel repeatability) and data analysis (e.g., prevalence of use of exploratory data analysis, only 20% of studies using confirmatory analyses considering the dynamic nature of the data). These results suggest the need for general guidelines on how to implement the method, analyze and interpret data, and report the results. Thus, a template and checklist for reporting data and results were proposed to help increase the quality of future research.

Abstract
This paper investigates the optimal process for ultrasonic desalination of Mianning ham. The study analyzed various factors such as ultrasonic treatment time, temperature, and power to determine their impact on the rate of desalination of hams. A single factor test was conducted to study the rate of desalination. Further, A Box-Behnken experimental design was used to evaluate the effect of Mianning ham desalination. The design examined the impacts of ultrasound on the physicochemical properties, texture, and sensory of the ham. Response surface processing group underwent oral processing to determine the optimal ultrasonic treatment conditions with the highest acceptance level. The results show that the best conditions were: ultrasonic time 84.56 min, ultrasonic temperature 40.35°C, and ultrasonic power 150.85 W. The average desalination rate of the ham under the optimal conditions was 25.93% ± 0.69%, and the hardness was 4.48 N ± 0.62 N. Overall, this process significantly improved the desalination rate, texture, and sensory quality of Mianning ham, providing solid theoretical support for desalination processing at the back end of ham.

Abstract
This study analyzes the influence of two different types of game meat (deer and wild boar) in relation to quality characteristics and oral processing attributes of skinless sausage. The goal of this study was to compare grilled game-meat-based "ćevap" with conventional pork-meat-based samples. Research comprised of color analysis, evaluation of textural components, testing degree of difference, temporal dominance of sensations, calculation of main oral processing attributes, and examination of particle size distribution. The results show that oral processing attributes are similar in between samples and concur with results of the pork-based sample. This confirms the working hypothesis that it is possible to make game-meat-based "ćevap" fully comparable with conventional pork meat products. In parallel, color and flavor characteristics are influenced by the type of game meat in the sample. Most of the dominant sensory attributes that occurred during mastication were game meat flavor and juiciness.

Abstract
Previous studies dealing with plant-based meat analogs confirmed the potential of oral processing methods to identify options for improving those products. Knowing that sensory perception can be influenced by adding condiments, this short communication aimed to investigate the texture and oral processing of four plant-based burger analogs and a beef burger when consumed in portions or as part of model meals with buns and sides. Texture profile analysis indicated that beef burgers and analog E were the toughest. Two analogs (B and S) showed textures close to beef, while one (analog D) displayed significantly lower values for hardness, toughness, cohesiveness, and springiness. The instrumental data was only partly reflected in the mastication parameters. Adaptations in mastication behavior were expected, but differences between the plant-based analogs were smaller than anticipated, although clear differences were observed for consumption time, number of chews and number of swallows. On the whole, mastication patterns concurred within different consumption scenarios (portions, model burgers), and significant correlations with instrumental texture were obtained.

Abstract
The influence of boiling, steaming, grilling and sous-vide treatments on bolus properties of vegetables was investigated. Cooking produced potato boluses with large particles or pasty boluses unsuitable for analysis. Celeriac preserved its brittleness and produced more small particles as mastication prolonged. Eggplant and zucchini were similar and both produced relatively large particles throughout the mastication. Saliva incorporation results showed an uncommon trend since boluses from the moment of swallowing did not have the highest moisture content. It was inferred that boiling had similar effects as steaming on one side, and grilling had similar effects as sous-vide on the other.

Abstract
This study analyzed the potential of modelling meat mastication by using pork and poultry meat as food with different physical properties under different grilling temperatures. For the purpose of modelling oral processing, temporal dominance of sensations and finite element methods were employed. A panel with ten subjects was trained and used for oral processing analysis and temporal dominance of sensations revealing in-mouth sensations and mastication characteristics. In parallel, the second aim was to evaluate the mechanical properties of the samples and explore the potential of simulating the first bite using the finite element method. Based on the textural parameters, a 3D model of grilled meat was created and a first-bite simulation was performed. A higher level of differences was observed comparing the number of chews for pork meat compared to poultry meat. The chewing rate showed a statistical difference with values in the range of 1.31 chews/s to 1.46 chews/s for pork meat and between 1.36 chews/s and 1.42 chews/s for poultry meat. Firmness was the predominant sensory attribute recognized by panelists at the beginning of mastication, which confirmed our approach used for first-bite modelling. Simulation results show the growth of internal stress following the jaw’s path. Presented models demonstrate that the highest values are around teeth pressure and lead to a conclusion that upon biting, the meat structure will suffer irreversible damage dividing the grilled meat into two pieces, as it happens during the first bite. The main conclusion of this study is that by combining results from oral processing and testing of mechanical properties of the grilled products, it is possible to simulate the first bite.

Abstract
Besides the flavor profile of food, texture plays a major role in terms of the acceptance and likeability of food products. In contrast to gel-like homogenous isotropic structures, where the characterization is established and structure-texture mechanisms are well understood, there is still a lack of knowledge in the field of anisotropic complex food matrices. Food systems that show anisotropic properties in terms of macroscopic mechanical anisotropy as in grown meat, or mixed complex systems where anisotropic shaped particles or fibers are embedded into an isotropic matrix are challenging to characterize, hence the structure-texture correlation is not trivial to understand. In this paper, we bring together the state of the art of different anisotropic structures as a source of food, their formation in terms of structured plant proteins, and consequently the structure-texture correlation of those. Characteristic terms and properties to differentiate between anisotropic systems are introduced with the purpose to facilitate characterization of those. Based on the here provided terms and characteristics, further studies toward understanding such systems and their perception can be conducted. Beyond that, a first opinion on crucial influencing factors on the perception of anisotropic systems and their mechanistic background is provided.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate nitrite reduction impact on geometry, colour, chemical, microbiological, and sensory traits of dry sausage (kulen) traditionally prepared with red hot paprika powder. Three batches of kulen with different nitrite levels were produced and assessed: N110 (control with 110 mg/kg of sodium nitrite), N55 (55 mg/kg of sodium nitrite), and NF (without sodium nitrite). Samples for the analyses were taken on production day, after 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40 days of ripening and after 50 and 100 days of storage. Four novel digital methods for quality assessment were deployed such as computer vision system (CVS), three-dimensional (3D) laser imaging, oral processing, and temporal dominance of sensations (TDS). Reduction and removal of nitrites from the formulation of kulen did not result in significant (
) differences in lightness (
), redness (
), and yellowness (
) of the sausage surface, meat, and fat parts that were measured independently by means CVS. Sausages produced by 50% nitrite reduction (N55) showed no significant (
) differences in terms of geometrical, chemical, colour, microbiological, and oral processing parameters compared with the control (N110) batch. On the other hand, the complete removal of nitrites from kulen formulation negatively affected biogenic amine levels and oral processing properties of the product. Nitrite reduction showed no significant effect on TDS curves among the batches. The results of this study indicate that nitrite content in traditional kulen can be reduced by 50% (55 mg/kg of sodium nitrite) without adversely affecting the various quality properties of the product.

Abstract
The rationale behind this review is the potential of developing a single score tool for meat quality evaluation based on visual and sensorial assessments of fresh meat. Based on the known sensory wheel concept, the first step was to create quality wheels capturing most common intrinsic and extrinsic quality cues of pork and beef outlined in the latest scientific papers. This resulted in identifying meat color, sensory characteristics and fat content as the most important intrinsic quality cues of fresh beef and pork. Furthermore, the highest number of studies showed the importance of price, certification logos and brand for beef quality evaluation. According to recent articles, price, breed, animal welfare and a veterinary certificate are the most important extrinsic attributes for pork consumers. The second step was to develop a single-score tool named the “Meat quality index”. It has been developed in line with published approaches of different total quality index concepts used in the food sector, providing insights into its application in the meat sector. As a result, this review proposes a unique approach in using quality index application, through the consumer’s preferences aspect of fresh meat.

Abstract
This study investigated the relationship between meat texture (Warner Bratzler shear force and Texture Profile Analysis), water holding capacity and subsequent mastication of meat from sheep fed different diets and maintained under different packaging methods. Biceps femoris from 24 Merino sheep fed a standard pelleted diet containing grain and cereal hay or pelleted diets supplemented with either 8% camelina meal or 15% camelina forage hay was packaged in high oxygen modified atmosphere packaging (hiOxMAP) or vacuum skin packaging (VSP). Warner Bratzler shear force, texture profile analysis and water holding capacity (purge loss and cooking loss) were measured. Twelve volunteers were recruited to chew the cooked meat samples before expectorating the bolus at their natural swallowing point. Meat stored in hiOxMAP had greater purge loss, Warner Bratzler peak force, hardness, and chewiness compared to meat packed in VSP. Mastication testing revealed that chewing frequency increased with VSP meat compared to hiOxMAP meat. Feed type had little effect on meat texture parameters, however, sheep meat on the standard pelleted diet required a greater number of chews than sheep fed on camelina. Increased toughness in cooked meat due to feed type or packaging methods results in greater chewing effort, but this did not affect meat bolus properties at the natural swallowing point.

Abstract
The present study investigated the influence of boiling and grilling deployed at 15, 30, and 45 min on selected eggplant and zucchini qualities. The colorants present in these vegetables contribute to their attractive appearance while presenting health-benefit components. This study shows that boiling and grilling differently affected the color properties of the eggplant and zucchini flesh and skin, leading to discoloration. However, the multifactorial mechanisms behind this phenomenon are not yet fully uncovered. Both boiling and grilling caused softening in examined vegetables within cooking prolongation, but different effects were observed. In the case of grilling, large- and small-deformation mechanical parameters established higher values. Thus, grilling produced firmer samples, which was further projected on mastication and dynamic sensory perception. Although there was limited differentiation in mastication parameters, it was observable that grilled products were more mastication-demanding. The number of chews and consumption time provided most of the information and established higher values for short-time cooking treatments and grilling. As a consequence, samples that had longer in-oral exposure times were perceived as bitter (eggplant) or sweet (zucchini). Oppositely, boiled vegetables were juicier. Regardless of the type of vegetable or cooking method, the shortest cooking treatments resulted in products dominantly perceived as firm.

Abstract
To increase the appeal of plant protein-based meat analogs, further progress needs to be made in their sensory perception. Given the limited number of studies on meat analogs, this review focuses on structure, oral processing, and sensory perception of meat and subsequently translates the insights to meat analogs. An extensive number of publications has built the current understanding of meat mechanical and structural properties, but inconsistencies concerning terminology and methodology execution as well as the wide variety in terms of natural origin limit solid conclusions about the control parameters for oral processing and sensory perception. Consumer-relevant textural aspects such as tenderness and juiciness are not directly correlated to single structural features but depend on an interplay of multiple factors and thus require a holistic approach. We discuss the differences in mastication and disintegration of meat and meat analogs and provide an outlook toward converting skeptical consumers into returning customers. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, Volume 13 is March 2022.

Abstract
Pungency is an interesting sensory stimulus analyzed from different perspectives, in particular the underpinning mechanisms of its sensation and perception. In this study, grilled pork meat coated with three types of hot sauces were investigated regarding its main food oral processing characteristics and evaluated using time-intensity and temporal dominance of pungency sensations methods analyzing the pungency descriptors and intensities. Besides these methods, facial expressions obtained from video capturing were subject to emotion detection. Mastication parameters showed a slight, but not statistically significant, trend of an increased number of chews and consumption time associated with pungency intensity, while saliva incorporation indicated an increasing trend depending on the pungency intensity, especially after 25 strokes and before swallowing. Both time intensity and temporal dominance of pungency sensations showed that the complexity of understanding these sensations is in relation to intensity and type. Finally, the use of emotion detection software in analyzing the faces of panelists during mastication confirmed the increase in non-neutral emotions associated with the increase in pungency intensity.

Abstract
The physiological transformations that happen during oral processing are complex and challenging to capture and measure; however, their knowledge can help design new products for people who struggle with mastication and swallowing. Here we relate chewing, saliva incorporation and bolus properties with initial meat texture. Three different textures (T1-tender, T2-intermediate, T3-tough) were created by cooking meat in different temperature time combinations and "ready-to-swallow" meat boluses were collected from 10 healthy individuals. Masticatory variables, saliva incorporation, and bolus mechanical and geometrical characteristics were analyzed. Meat texture showed significant effect on masticatory variables (number of chews and chewing duration) but not on saliva incorporation. Bolus mechanical characteristics (hardness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness) varied significantly (p < .05) with meat texture, where meat with a harder texture resulted in a harder bolus. Number of bolus particles changed significantly (p < .05) with increasing meat hardness, where harder meat produced more bolus particles. Significant (p < .05) intersubject variability was recorded for masticatory parameters and saliva incorporation. Mechanical and geometrical characteristics of "ready-to-swallow" meat bolus did not vary among subjects.

Ilic J, Tomasevic I, Djekic I. Ease of mastication index-Quantification of mastication effort using quality function deployment. J Texture Stud 2021; 52:447-460. [PMID: 34231885 DOI: 10.1111/jtxs.12621] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2021] [Revised: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
An effort required to masticate a bite of food seems important for a broad group of consumers considering many foodstuffs. Consumers with specific needs (elderly, people with impaired oral functioning) are also interested in ease of mastication. Besides understanding the relationships between mastication and sensory perception, a better insight into foodstuffs' mastication effort is needed to gain vital information when choosing the food and judging its quality. However, there is not much work describing the quantification of mastication effort as a quality grade. Within this research, we: (a) analyzed consumers' demands toward mastication attributes, (b) examined mastication, mechanical, and sensory parameters for nine foodstuffs (meat and dairy products), and (c) developed a quality function deployment model that connects consumers' demands with a multidimensional technical scale, enabling mastication effort quantification through a novel "ease of mastication index" (EMI). As a single-value quality score, EMI answers how much effort must be applied to masticate certain foodstuff. It is a left-sided index (it can have only positive values up to EMI = 1), having the maximal value for creamy cheese (0.96) and minimal (0.40) for fermented sausage in the present study, meaning the latter was the most difficult case study product for mastication. This study's practical application may be seen in the proposed model usage for foodstuffs research and development, bearing in mind ease of mastication. EMI may play an essential role as a novel quality indicator that can be considered crucial for broad and specific consumer groups.

Bee pollen powder as a functional ingredient in frankfurters. Meat Sci 2021; 182:108621. [PMID: 34252842 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2021.108621] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2021] [Revised: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/04/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine whether the addition of different pollen powder concentrations (0.0, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 g/100 g) to frankfurters had an influence on antioxidant potential and oxidative changes during storage, without detrimental effect on the quality of sausages. After cold storage of frankfurters, significant (P < 0.05) reductions of psychrotrophic bacteria populations were achieved with higher amounts of pollen (1.0 and 1.5 g/100 g). Good antioxidant properties and maintained TBARS values were accomplished by incorporating pollen into the frankfurters. In terms of quality parameters, statistically significant changes were obtained regarding the color, but sensory characteristics of the products were not disturbed. Also, the incorporation of pollen did not cause changes in terms of texture profile analyses of frankfurters. It can be concluded that the natural component, bee pollen powder, can be used as an antioxidant in frankfurter formulations, but further research is needed to estimate whether it can be an adequate replacement for synthetic antioxidants.

Djekic I, Lorenzo JM, Munekata PES, Gagaoua M, Tomasevic I. Review on characteristics of trained sensory panels in food science. J Texture Stud 2021; 52:501-509. [PMID: 34085719 DOI: 10.1111/jtxs.12616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 05/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Sensory analysis has been, is, and will be one of the most important methods in judging food quality. As such, it is an evaluation tool involving human subjects with specific skills to conduct assigned series of tests. This review outlines main characteristics of 179 trained panels published in 16 selected scientific journals in the last 12 months, as well as training methods used for panelists, and type of sensory studies employed. The results reveal that two thirds of the panels have between eight and twelve members, with gender data provided in half of the papers. Overall duration of their initial training is presented only in around 20% of reviewed publications. When provided, duration was below 2 hr per session involving up to 10 sessions. One third of papers confirmed to have conducted training of the panel for methods employed, while almost half used experienced human subjects with no further data. Around 12% of all manuscripts have validated training of their sensory panel, while 20% of papers covered at least one criterion for assessment of their panels' performance. The majority of papers (80%) used descriptive methods, mainly with intensity scales. It is of note that 15% of papers used hedonic tests typical for consumer studies. Almost half of the scholars conducted their research in triplicates (41.3%) while almost one quarter (24%) provided no data on this subject. Type of food analyzed has no effects on the quality of data provided regarding panels, training, sensory methods, and replications.

Guo Q. Understanding the oral processing of solid foods: Insights from food structure. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2021; 20:2941-2967. [PMID: 33884754 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.12745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 02/17/2021] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
Understanding the relationship between the structure of solid foods and their oral processing is paramount for enhancing features such as texture and taste and for improving health-related factors such as management of body weight or dysphagia. This paper discusses the main aspects of the oral processing of solid foods across different categories: (1) oral physiology related to chewing, (2) in-mouth food transformation, (3) texture perception, and (4) taste perception, and emphasis is placed on unveiling the underlying mechanisms of how food structure influences the oral processing of solid foods; this is exemplified by comparing the chewing behaviors for a number of representative solid foods. It highlights that modification of the texture/taste of food based on food structure design opens up the possibility for the development of food products that can be applied in the management of health.
