Abstract
Due to allergenic concerns, only pea, potato, and wheat proteins have been approved as alternatives for replacing animal-based fining agents in wines. In pursuit of other substitutes, this work aimed to determine the fining ability of amaranth (Amaranthus caudatus L.) proteins (AP) in red wine, compared to quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) (QP) and a commercial pea protein. Phenolic and volatile composition, as well as color characteristics, were analyzed. AP was as effective as QP at decreasing condensed tannins, with AP at 50 g/hL being the most effective treatment (25.6% reduction). QP and AP produced a minor or no statistical change in the total anthocyanins and wine color intensity. They reduced the total ester concentration, but the total alcohols remained unchanged. The outcomes of AP and QP were similar, and sometimes better than the pea proteins, thus suggesting that they could be promising options for the development of novel fining agents.

Abstract
Salivary proteins precipitation by interaction with polyphenols is the major mechanism for astringency. However, alternative mechanisms seem involved in the perception of different subqualities of astringency. In this study, adsorption of four astringent agents to in vitro oral models and their sensory properties were assessed. Overall, green tea infusion and tannic acid have shown a higher adsorption potential for models with oral cells and absence of saliva. Alum and grape seed extract presented higher adsorption in models with presence of oral cells and saliva. Multiple factor analysis suggested that adsorption may represent important mechanisms to elicit the astringency of alum. Models including saliva, were closely associated with overall astringency and aggressive subquality. Models with cells and absent saliva were closely associated with greenness, suggesting a taste receptor mechanism involvement in the perception. For the first time a correlation between an oral-cell based assay and astringency sensory perception was shown.

Abstract
The link between salivary composition and sensitivity to astringency as a function of age has still not been established. In this work, we propose the hypothesis that ageing leads to changes in the concentration of salivary proline-rich proteins (PRPs), which alters the astringency perception threshold with age. To test this hypothesis, astringency sensitivity to tannic acid and saliva was assessed in 30 elderly people and 24 young people. Basic PRPs (bPRPs) and glycosylated PRPs (gPRPs) were quantified immunochemically via western blot analysis. The results showed that the amounts of bPRPs and gPRPs were similar between the young and elderly groups. However, a positive correlation between the gPRP amount and astringency threshold was observed only in the young group, while a negative correlation between the bPRP amount and astringency threshold was observed only in the elderly group. This finding suggests differences in the contribution of PRP type to astringency perception as a function of age.

Abstract
In this study, the effects of thermal treatments on the structural, rheological, water mobility, antioxidant, and astringency properties of proanthocyanidin (PA)-pectin binary complexes were investigated. Thermal treatments (25, 63, or 85 °C) significantly decreased the particle size but increased the molecular weight of PA-pectin complexes, which indicated that heating altered the intermolecular and intramolecular interactions between PA and pectin. The thermal treatments reduced the apparent viscosity of both pectin and PA-pectin complexes, but the presence of proanthocyanidins (PAs) increased the apparent viscosity and water mobility of the PA-pectin complexes. Antioxidant activity analysis showed that the presence of pectin slightly reduced the antioxidant activity of the PAs, but there were no significant changes in the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity after thermal treatment. Finally, we found that pectin reduced the astringency of the PAs by forming PA-pectin complexes. Moreover, the thermal treatments also significantly reduced the astringency of the PA-pectin complexes.

Abstract
This present study investigated the masking effect of high methoxyl pectin, xanthan gum, and gum Arabic on the astringency of the traditional herbal formula Triphala and further examined the mechanism of polysaccharide reducing astringency. Results of sensory evaluation and electronic tongue illustrated that 0.6 % pectin, 0.3 % xanthan gum, and 2 % gum Arabic had a substantial deastringent effect. The polyphenols in Triphala are basically hydrolysable tannins, which with high degree of gallic acylation may be the main astringent component of Triphala. Moreover, the three polysaccharides can combine with β-casein through CO and NH groups to form soluble binary complexes and decrease the secondary structure of β-casein. When polysaccharides were added to the Triphala-protein system, polyphenol-protein precipitation was also diminished, and they were capable of forming soluble ternary complexes. Consequently, the competition between polysaccharides and polyphenols for binding salivary proteins and the formation of ternary complexes help decrease the astringency of Triphala.

Abstract
This study aimed to characterize the sensory profiles of wines produced using the flash détente (FD) technique and to identify the flavor compounds contributing to the sensory characteristics. The FD technique was applied to two major grape varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon and Marselan, from the Changli region of China to produce high-quality wines with aging potential. Compared to the traditional macerated wines, the FD wines showed greater color intensity, mainly due to the higher levels of anthocyanins. Regarding the aroma characteristics, FD wines were found to have a more pronounced fruitness, especially fresh fruit note, which was due to the contribution of higher concentration of esters. Concurrently, FD wines showed an increased sweet note which was associated with increased lactones and furanones. In addition, FD wines exhibited reduced green and floral notes due to lower levels of C6 alcohols and C13-norisoprenoids. With regard to mouthfeel, FD wines presented greater astringency and bitterness, which was due to the higher levels of phenolics. The total concentration of condensed tannins and condensed tannins for each degree of polymerization was considerably higher in FD wines due to the strong extraction of the FD technique. A significant increase in grape-derived polysaccharides and glycerol was also found in FD wines, contributing to a fuller body. This study contributed to an increase in the knowledge of the Changli region and demonstrated that the FD technique could be applied to the wine production in this region to address the negative impacts of rainfall in individual vintages.

Abstract
Tannins are amphiphilic molecules, often polymeric, which can be generally described as a core containing hydrophobic aromatic rings surrounded by hydroxyl groups. They have been known for millennia and are part of human culture. They are ubiquitous in nature and are best known in the context of wine and tea tasting and food cultures. However, they are also very useful for human health, as they are powerful antioxidants capable of combating the constant aggressions of everyday life. However, their mode of action is only just beginning to be understood. This review, using physicochemical concepts, attempts to summarize current knowledge and present an integrated view of the complex relationship between tannins, proteins and lipids, in the context of wine drinking while eating. There are many thermodynamic equilibria governing the interactions between tannins, saliva proteins, lipid droplets in food, membranes and the taste receptors embedded in them. Taste sensations can be explained using these multiple equilibria: for example, astringency (dry mouth) can be explained by the strong binding of tannin micelles to the proline-rich proteins of saliva, suppressing their lubricating action on the palate. In the presence of lipid droplets in food, the equilibrium is shifted towards tannin-lipid complexes, a situation that reduces the astringency perceived when consuming a tannic wine with fatty foods, the so-called "camembert effect". Tannins bind preferentially to taste receptors located in mouth membranes, but can also fluidify lipids in the non-keratinized mucous membranes of the mouth, which can impair the functioning of taste receptors there. Cholesterol, present in large quantities in keratinized mucous membranes, stiffens them and thus prevents tannins from disrupting the conduction of information through other taste receptors. As tannins assemble and disassemble depending on whether they are in contact with proteins, lipids or taste receptors, a perspective on their potential use in the context of neurodegenerative diseases where fibrillation is a key phenomenon will also be discussed.

Abstract
This study aimed to establish relationships between wine composition and in-mouth sensory properties using a sensometabolomic approach. Forty-two red wines were sensorially assessed and chemically characterised using UPLC-QTOF-MS for targeted and untargeted analyses. Suitable partial least squares regression models were obtained for "dry", "sour", "oily", "prickly", and "unctuous". "Dry" was positively contributed by flavan-3-ols, anthocyanin derivatives (AntD), valine, gallic acid and its ethyl ester, and peptides, and negatively by sulfonated flavan-3-ols, anthocyanin-ethyl-flavan-3-ols, tartaric acid, flavonols (FOL), hydroxycinnamic acids (HA), protocatechuic ethyl ester, and proline. The "sour" model included molecules involved in "dry" and "bitter", ostensibly as a result of cognitive interactions. Derivatives of FOLs, epicatechin gallate, and N-acetyl-glucosamine phosphate contributed positively to "oily", as did vanillic acid, HAs, pyranoanthocyanins, and malvidin-flavan-3-ol derivatives for "prickly", and sugars, glutathione disulfide, AntD, FOL, and one HA for "unctuous". The presented approach offers an interesting tool for deciphering the sensory-active compounds involved in mouthfeel perception.

Abstract
Wine astringency is thought to be due to salivary protein precipitation; however, the actual mechanism is not well-defined. This study aimed understand the relationship between whole polysaccharide extracts, produced with and without enzyme maceration, and the saliva protein-tannin precipitation reaction. Polysaccharides were analyzed in the context of salivary protein-tannin interactions using gel electrophoresis, quantitative 1H proton nuclear magnetic resonance (qHNMR), size separation chromatography, immunochemistry, and sensory analysis. Polysaccharide addition reduced saliva protein concentration in tannin-saliva protein-polysaccharide mixtures, indicating that native-wine polysaccharides compete with condensed tannins for salivary protein as ligand partners. qHNMR showed that tannin levels were increased by adding polysaccharides, suggesting that in these conditions, polysaccharides interact with saliva proteins via competitive protein-polysaccharide complex formation. Polysaccharides from non-enzyme-treated wines had threshold concentration of 121 mg/mL versus 86 mg/ml for enzyme-treated as detected by a sensory panel. Enzyme-treated polysaccharides changed astringency perception at a lower concentration than non-enzyme-treated polysaccharides.

Abstract
Astringency corresponds to the sensation of dryness and roughness that is experienced in the oral cavity in association with the interaction between salivary proteins and food polyphenols. In this study, the phenolic composition of seven varietal wines, the intensity of astringency they evoke and the physicochemical reactivity of these wines with whole human saliva were evaluated. Phenolic composition of wines was characterized by spectrophotometry and HPLC chromatography. Intensity of astringency was evaluated by trained sensory panels. Saliva from a single volunteer subject was used to assess wine-saliva interactions. To this end, binary mixtures were produced at different v/v wine/saliva ratios and each of them assayed for the ability of the salivary protein to diffuse on a cellulose membrane (diffusion test) and to remain in solution (precipitation test). Physicochemical reactivities between wine components and the protein fraction of saliva were contrasted against the astringency and the phenolic profile of each varietal wine. The study supports the view that astringency depends on physicochemical interactions between two complex matrices -wine and saliva- and not between some of their particular components.

Abstract
The analysis of proanthocyanidins (PA) in red wine has typically been conducted using few key methods, such as phloroglucinolysis or precipitation assays. Here, the content of PAs and other common polyphenol groups in commercial red wines were analyzed with a group-specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. Besides concentrations, the method provides qualitative information about the detected compound groups in the form of two-dimensional (2D) chromatographic fingerprints. The 2D fingerprints of PAs have not been utilized in analysis of red wine before. For instance, 2D chromatographic fingerprints revealed that the complex PA compositions were qualitatively notably similar between many wine types, even when there were considerable differences in concentrations. Finally, 201 commercial red wines had been categorized as either tannic or medium tannic based on their sensorial evaluations. The content of PAs and three different groups of oligomeric adducts of malvidin glycosides and PAs were measured from these wines. The compositional features of the PAs and PA-malvidin glycoside adducts were more important than concentrations in explaining the perceived tannicity.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds are responsible for food unpleasant taste properties, including astringency, due to their ability to interact with salivary proteins and oral constituents. Astringency is a crucial attribute for consumer's acceptability. To fulfill the demand for both healthy and tasty food, polysaccharides raise as a good alternative to modulate astringency. In this work, a cell-based quaternary system was developed to evaluate the ability of polysaccharides to reduce the interaction between two classes of hydrolysable tannins - gallotannins (tannic acid) and ellagitannins (punicalagin) - and oral constituents (cells, salivary proteins and mucosal pellicle). So, pectic polysaccharide fractions isolated from grape skins, imidazole soluble polysaccharides (ISP) and carbonate soluble polysaccharides (CSP), as well as a commercial pectin, were tested. Results showed that the polysaccharide's effect depends on the structural features of the molecules involved. CSP fraction and pectin were the most effective, reducing the interactions between both tannins and the oral constituents, mainly in the complete oral model. The highest uronic acid content and the presence of methyl esterified groups could explain their high reduction ability. For tannic acid, the reduction effect increased along with the galloylation degree, while the interaction of β-punicalagin with the oral constituents was practically inhibited at 3.0 mg.mL-1.

Abstract
In this work, three mannoprotein extracts were obtained from T. delbrueckii by enzymatic and chemical treatments. The obtained mannoprotein extracts showed important differences in their molecular weight distribution and monosaccharide composition, although no significant differences were found in their protein content. In order to evaluate the possible influence of mannoprotein characteristics in the interaction with flavanols, mannoprotein-flavanol interactions were studied by HPLC-DAD-MS and ITC. The results obtained indicate that the mannoprotein extracts were able to precipitate flavanols to a different extent. Furthermore, the degree of flavanol precipitation seemed not to be related to the affinity of the interaction but to the type of intermolecular forces. In this sense, a higher proportion of hydrogen bonding could favor a greater crosslinking between aggregates promoting flavanol precipitation. This, in turn, could be related to the MP characteristics since the presence of β-glucan moieties might have an effect on the formation of hydrogen bonds.

Abstract
Ionic valency influences oral processing by changing salivary behavior and merits more attention since little is known. In this study, the influence of three ionic valences (monovalent, divalent and trivalent), ionic strength and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on lubricating properties of saliva were investigated. Tribological measurements were used to characterize the lubrication response of KCl, MgCl2, FeCl3, and AlCl3 in combination with EGCG to the ex vivo salivary pellicle. KCl at 150 mM ionic strength provided extra lubrication via hydration lubrication. Contrarily, trivalent salts aggregated together with the salivary mucins via ionic cross-link interactions, which led to a decrease in salivary lubrication. FeCl3 and AlCl3 affected the salivary lubrication differently, which was attributed to changes in the pH. Finally, in presence of EGCG, FeCl3 interacted with EGCG via chelating interactions, preventing salivary protein aggregation. This resulted in less desorption of the salivary film, retaining the lubrication ability of salivary proteins.

Abstract
The innate aversion to warning sensations is an important barrier to the acceptance of vegetable food often characterized by bitter and sour tastes, and astringency. Large individual variations exist in preference for this food category. The present study aimed at exploring differences in demographics, anthropometrics, taste responsiveness, personality traits and attitudes in consumers differing in their preference for vegetable food with varied levels of warning sensations. A panel of Italian consumers (n = 718; 53.6% women, age 18-74 years) self-reported familiarity with, preference for and choice of vegetables with high and low levels of warning sensations. Two clusters were identified: High Warning-Vegetable Consumers (HWVC, n = 464) and Low-Warning Vegetable Consumers (LWVC, n = 254). HWVC showed higher familiarity with and preference for vegetables as a whole and higher choice of vegetables characterized by warning sensations than LWVC. HWVC were more represented by older and normal weight individuals as compared to LWVC. Differences among clusters in liking for and perception of a phenol-enriched plant-based food model specifically developed to induce different levels of bitterness, sourness and astringency were found. HWVC rated bitterness, sourness, and astringency lower and liking higher than LWVC. Scores in anxiety-related psychological traits were lower while attitudes to healthy and high-quality food choice were higher in HWVC than in LWVC. The results of the present study depicted a coherent interplay among several person-related dimensions in modulating preference for vegetable foods. Higher responsiveness to warning sensations, higher level of anxiety-related traits, lower importance assigned to food healthy/quality aspects and younger age all acted as barriers to exposure and acceptance of vegetable food and call for a multidimensional approach to promote the consumption of this food category.

Abstract
Despite the importance of fixation in determining green tea quality, its role in reducing the bitter and astringent taste of this beverage remains largely unknown. Herein, an electromagnetic roller-hot-air-steam triple-coupled fixation (ERHSF) device was developed, and its operating parameters were optimized (steam volume: 20 kg/h; hot-air temperature: 90 °C; hot-air blower speed: 1200 r/min). Compared with conventional fixation treated samples, the ratio of tea polyphenols to free amino acids and ester-catechins to simple-catechins in ERHSF-treated samples was reduced by 11.0% and 3.2%, reducing bitterness and astringency of green tea; amino acids, soluble sugars, and chlorophyll contents were significantly increased, enhancing the freshness, sweetness, and greenness; the color indexes, such as L/L* value of brightness and -a/-a* value of greenness, were also improved, and ERHSF-treated samples had the highest sensory scores. These results provided theoretical support and technical guidance for precise quality improvement of summer-autumn green tea.

Abstract
In-mouth interaction of red wine compounds with salivary proteins is a primary event allegedly responsible for eliciting the mouth-feel sensation of astringency. Those interactions have been currently associated with precipitation of salivary protein/polyphenol complexes. However, such single physicochemical evidence for interaction does not account for the complexity of astringency. This study aimed to develop a paper chromatography method to assess interactions between red wine and the salivary protein fraction using stepwise series of red wine/saliva binary mixtures from 100% wine to 100% saliva ("Alpha and Omega series"). Aliquots of each one of the mixtures were spotted on a cellulose membrane to scrutinize independently the distribution areas of wine components (naturally pink-colored) and salivary protein (stained blue in Coomassie Brilliant R-250). This double target detection revealed interactions between saliva and red wine components along most of the quantitative Alpha and Omega series, a point of equivalence corresponding to maximum interactivity for both complex reactants and a non-diffusible sub-fraction of saliva displaying the highest interactivity. The results indicate a novel way to assess quantitatively physicochemical interactions between red wines and human saliva but also provide new lights to approach the identification of molecular salivary structures involved in triggering astringency.

Abstract
The cashew apple is a tropical pseudo fruit, with high fiber content, high nutritional value, and therapeutic compositional profile. Consuming cashew apples can help with several health-related problems, such as obesity, stomach ulcers, and gastritis. It has even demonstrated anti-tumor and anti-carcinogenic effects, and its antioxidants can help with wound-healing. Despite such benefits, the cashew apple is frequently considered as waste generated by cashew nut industries, since its commercial applications are restricted by the astringency and poor storability. This astringency is primarily due to the presence of tannins; and a lack of proper, efficient, and economical astringency reduction strategy is accountable for major waste generation. This review compiles pieces of information on the causes of astringency, as well as tannin reduction methods, such as clarification, thermal treatments, microfiltration, and fermentation. These methods aim to either just reduce tannin content or to valorize this by-product in a less-astringent better product. Both routes will eventually help with the better utilization of said organic food waste, which is critical for sustainable development.

Abstract
Texture and mouthfeel are central to the sensory enjoyment of food and beverages. Yet our incomplete understanding of how food boluses are transformed in the mouth limits our texture prediction ability. As well as thin film tribology, the interaction of food colloids with the oral tissue and salivary biofilms plays a key role in texture perception via mechanoreceptors in the papillae. In this study we describe the development of an oral microscope capable of quantitative characterization of the inactions of food colloids with papillae and their concurrent saliva biofilm. We also highlight how the oral microscope revealed key microstructural drivers of several topical phenomena (oral residue formation, coalescence in-mouth, grittiness of protein aggregates and finally microstructural origin of polyphenol astringency) in the domain of texture creation. The coupling of a fluorescent food grade dye with image analysis enabled specific and quantitative determination of the microstructural changes in mouth. Emulsions either underwent no aggregation, small aggregation, or extensive aggregation depending on whether their surface charge facilitated complexation with the saliva biofilm. Quite surprisingly cationic gelatin emulsions that were already aggregated with saliva in mouth underwent coalescence if subsequently exposed to tea polyphenols (EGCG). Large protein aggregates were found to aggregate with the saliva coated papillae, increasing their size tenfold and possibly explaining why there are perceived as gritty. An exciting observation was the oral microstructural changes that occurred upon exposure to tea polyphenols (EGCG). Filiform papillae shrunk, and the saliva biofilm was seen to precipitate/collapse, exposing a very rough tissue surface. These tentative early steps are the first in vivo microstructural insights into the different food oral transformations that are drivers of key texture sensation.

Abstract
The impact of the polysaccharide moiety of mannoproteins (MPs) on the color and astringency of red wines was studied respectively through spectrophotometry and their impact on tannin interactions with BSA. To this end, MPs with conserved native structures from four different Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were used: a Wild-Type strain (BY4742, WT) taken as reference, mutants ΔMnn4 (with no mannosyl-phosphorylation) and ΔMnn2 (linear N-glycosylation backbone), and a commercial enological strain. MPs affected tannin-BSA interactions by delaying aggregation kinetics. To achieve it, a well-balanced density/compactness of the polysaccharide moiety of MPs was a key factor. MP-WT and MP-Mnn2 acted as weak copigments and induced a slight increase in the absorbance of Malvidin-3-O-Glucoside. The same MPs also promoted a synergistic effect during the copigmentation of Quercetin-3-O-Glucoside with Malvidin-3-O-Glucoside. The intensity of these hyperchromic effects was related to the accessibility of anthocyanins to negatively charged mannosyl-phosphate groups within the polysaccharide moiety.

Abstract
The potential contribution of Arabic gum to wine astringency was discussed in this study. Two universally used Arabic gum (concentration of 0.2-1.2 g/L) were investigated in model wine based on the polyphenol fractions (phenolic acids, monomeric/oligomeric, and polymeric procyanidin) and protein interaction system. Both physicochemical analyses and sensory evaluation revealed that the modulation of Arabic gum on astringency was affected by the structural properties and concentration of Arabic gum and polyphenolic fractions. Arabic gum at 0.2 g/L appeared as the optimal dose to reduce astringency compared to 0.6 and 1.2 g/L. It inhibited astringency induced by polymeric procyanidin more than that of oligomeric procyanidins and phenolic acids mainly by forming soluble ternary complexes with polyphenols and proteins, and preferentially binding proteins/polyphenols to decrease polyphenol-protein reactions. Arabic gum also inhibited the self-aggregation of polyphenols, exhibiting more binding sites when its higher molecular weight and more/longer branches, leading to competition with polyphenols for bind proteins.

Abstract
Soluble polysaccharides from white (PSW) and red (PSR) grape skins were obtained to be evaluated as potential modulators of the unbalanced astringency of a Tempranillo red wine. The modulation of astringency was evaluated by a sensory panel and it seemed to be related to the changes in the polyphenolic profile. Isothermal Titration Calorimetry (ITC) studies, employed to characterize flavan-3-ol-polysaccharide interactions, showed that PSR decreased noticeably wine astringency causing a great flavan-3-ol loss (ca. 40 %), since they interacted more spontaneously with the flavan-3-ols (ca. ΔGtotal = -2.14 × 104 cal/mol) than PSW (ca. ΔGtotal = -1.32 × 104 cal/mol). The strength of these interactions seems to be related to the polysaccharide molecular size and to the presence of arabinogalactans in the structure. On the contrary, PSW showed no relevant effects on wine astringency. Furthermore, potential variations of color were also assessed and no deleterious effect was observed after the addition of any polysaccharide.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of tannins and gallic acid on the salivary lubrication behavior. Furthermore, the effects of pH and mannoproteins in combination with gallic acid on the lubrication of saliva were studied. The addition of gallic acid and tannins were found to increase friction caused by the removal of the saliva film. Tannins resulted in higher friction compared to gallic acid. Lowering pH increased friction of gallic acid mixtures with saliva, due to stronger interactions between gallic acid and saliva. The increased friction caused by gallic acid was inhibited by the addition of mannoproteins due to the hydrogen bond interactions between gallic acid and mannoproteins, thereby decreasing the complex formation between gallic acid and salivary proteins. A correlation of 0.96 was found between the hydrodynamic diameter of the aggregate and the delta friction suggesting that the formation of aggregates determined the lubrication behavior.

Abstract
Aronia berry has extremely strong and unpleasant astringent mouthfeel. However, detailed information on the key astringent compounds is still limited. To fill this gap, astringent compounds were firstly separated from aronia juice. Following sensory evaluation, phenolic profile determination, validation by in-vitro models, and thiolytic degradation, key astringent compounds were identified. Results showed when most proanthocyanidins (PAs) were removed while other phenolic compounds remained, the astringency intensity of aronia juice was significantly decreased. In-vitro models, including saliva precipitation index and mucin turbidity, validated PAs rather than anthocyanins as the key astringent compounds. The protein-precipitated PAs from aronia juice were identified as polymers, linked by B-type bonds, with (-)-epicatechin as the extension unit and predominantly as the terminal unit, having a 69.56 mean degree of polymerization (mDP), far higher than the 35.38 mDP of PAs separated directly from juice. These findings would be valuable to the development of targeted astringency mitigation approaches.

Abstract
Non-astringent persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb.) paste is typically produced by treating astringent persimmon fruit with alcohol or dry ice (to remove tannins) followed by abrasion. However, considering the large yield of astringent persimmons harvested in a short time, this long, laborious method has hindered the use of persimmon paste in food processing. Herein, the addition of polysaccharides was used to produce a non-astringent persimmon paste while maintaining its quality. Among the nine evaluated polysaccharides, high- (HM) and low-methoxyl (LM) pectins, carrageenan, xanthan gum, and sodium alginate exhibited high astringency removal efficiencies. No astringency recurrence was observed after freezing when HM or LM pectin, guar gum, carrageenan, or sodium alginate were added. Moreover, the addition of HM pectin, or LM pectin, or sodium alginate prevented astringency upon heating. Additionally, guar, xanthan, tara gum, or carrageenan effectively inhibited syneresis. Thus, high-quality pastes could be easily and efficiently produced using a combination of polysaccharides.

Abstract
Roughness is a perceptual attribute typically associated with certain stimuli that are presented in one of the spatial senses. In auditory research, the term is typically used to describe the harsh effects that are induced by particular sound qualities (i.e., dissonance) and human/animal vocalizations (e.g., screams, distress cries). In the tactile domain, roughness is a crucial factor determining the perceptual features of a surface. The same feature can also be ascertained visually, by means of the extraction of pattern features that determine the haptic quality of surfaces, such as grain size and density. By contrast, the term roughness has rarely been applied to the description of those stimuli perceived via the chemical senses. In this review, we take a critical look at the putative meaning(s) of the term roughness, when used in both unisensory and multisensory contexts, in an attempt to answer two key questions: (1) Is the use of the term 'roughness' the same in each modality when considered individually? and (2) Do crossmodal correspondences involving roughness match distinct perceptual features or (at least on certain occasions) do they merely pick-up on an amodal property? We start by examining the use of the term in the auditory domain. Next, we summarize the ways in which the term roughness has been used in the literature on tactile and visual perception, and in the domain of olfaction and gustation. Then, we move on to the crossmodal context, reviewing the literature on the perception of roughness in the audiovisual, audiotactile, and auditory-gustatory/olfactory domains. Finally, we highlight some limitations of the reviewed literature and we outline a number of key directions for future empirical research in roughness perception.

Abstract
Pea protein isolates contain high-quality plant protein. However, they have sensory drawbacks, notably bitterness and astringency, that have limited their use in commercial foods. This study's aim was thus to identify the main phytochemicals in pea-based samples and to examine associations with sensory attributes. The phytochemical profiles of pea flour, pea protein isolates, and pea protein isolate fractions were characterized via UHPLC-DAD-MS. A total of 48 phytochemicals have been revealed: 6 phenolic acids, 5 flavonoids, and 1 saponin were identified and quantified, while another 9 phenolic acids, 10 flavonoids, and 6 saponins were tentatively identified. The impacts of protein extraction and fractionation were studied. These processes appear to have caused some compound degradation. It was found that 29 compounds were correlated with perceived bitterness and/or astringency. Therefore, these results show that certain phytochemicals can lead to negative sensory attributes in pea-protein-based products.

Abstract
Hydroxycinnamoyl quinic acids are important phenolic acids in tea, particularly fermented teas. However, there have been fewer studies that have confirmed their taste properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the astringent compounds in Keemun congou black tea (KBT) using a combination of mass spectrometry, turbidity analysis, and sensory evaluation. Turbidity analysis determined that p-coumaroylquinic acids were the astringent contributing compounds in KBT. Moreover, the separated compound D16 was identified as trans-4-O-p-coumaroylquinic acid (trans-4-O-pCoQA) by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and first confirmed to be the astringent contributing compound in KBT by sensory evaluation. Its astringent threshold concentration was tested to be 38 µM. The trans-4-O-pCoQA content in eight KBT samples of various grades ranged from 40.20 ± 0.15 ~ 65.53 ± 0.22 µM. Turbidity analysis combined with sensory evaluation could be a powerful tool for identifying critical compounds responsible for the astringent taste.

Abstract
Astringency is a tactile sensation of puckering, tightening and dryness in the oral cavity, commonly induced by polyphenols. In this study, the interaction of two phenolic compound mixtures, one rich in gallotannins and the other in flavonols, with two oral models (tongue (HSC3) or buccal mucosa (TR146) was evaluated. Results provided evidence that gallotannins and flavonols seem to bind in a different way to the different oral constituents and models used. Gallotannins seems to bind more to the tongue than to the buccal mucosa cell line, but this difference is overcome by the presence of salivary proteins. Conversely, for the flavonol mixture, the presence of salivary proteins seems to restrain the interaction with oral cell lines. Structure-binding activity relationships were evidenced within each mixture: for gallotannins, interactions seem to increase along with the galloylation degree while for flavonol it was observed that increasing numbers of glucose residues decreased the binding activity.

Abstract
This study sought to determine the effects of variety on the astringency and chemistry of condensed tannins of spine grapes and wines. Fifteen varieties of red spine grape (Vitis davidii Foex) were used. Condensed tannin content, composition, and wine astringency were determined. The condensed tannin profiles were assessed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). The condensed tannin content highly depended on the variety ranging from 0.30 mg/g to 7.80 mg/g (in skins), from 3.12 mg/g to 8.82 mg/g (in seeds), and from 62.60 mg/L to 225.90 mg/L (in wines). There were significant differences in proportions of certain constitutive subunits (as mole%) and mean degree of polymerization (mDp) among the varieties. Correlation analysis revealed that condensed tannin concentration and composition had a significant effect on the sensory evaluation and quantitative analysis of astringency. A positive correlation between mDp and astringency was also observed. The present results expand knowledge of the characterization of spine grape and wine condensed tannin chemistry and astringency.

Abstract
The effects of two different freezing temperatures (- 20 °C and - 80 °C) on the astringency trait of persimmon fruits during 15 to 60 days of storage were investigated. The levels of soluble and insoluble tannins, proanthocyanidins and other physicochemical characteristics were evaluated. Storage at - 20 °C and - 80 °C temperatures up to 60 days has been found to be an effective method to remove astringency of persimmon fruits. Proanthocyanidin concentration was negligible at both temperatures during storage. Total soluble solid contents were decreased as 3.34 from 4.59 (mg/g DW) whereas, insoluble tannin contents were increased as 20.30 from 16.45 (mg/g DW) by freezing temperatures treatment during storage. Comparatively, higher soluble tannin content 11.68 (mg/g DW) and lower insoluble tannin content 10.02 (mg/g DW) was observed in control (day 0). Therefore, the astringency of persimmon fruits incubated at - 20 °C and - 80 °C was markedly reduced and after 15 up to 60 days of storage, the astringent taste virtually disappeared. The proanthocyanidin contents were decreased as 0.02 from 0.52 (mg/g DW) at - 20 °C storage and 0.17 from 0.47 (mg/g DW) at - 80 °C storage, in comparison with the control 2.65 (mg/g DW). The moreover, along with the removal of astringency, other physicochemical parameters including color, pH, moisture content, total soluble solid, and sensory attributes were also conserved on freezing at both the temperatures. These findings suggest that freezing temperature treatments aid the removal of astringency from persimmon fruits which could be used in different food preparations or as supplements.

Abstract
Polyphenols have been part of human culture for about 6000 years. However, their mode of action in relation to wine tasting while eating is only beginning to be understood. This review, using analytical techniques and physicochemical concepts, attempts to summarize current knowledge and present an integrated view of the complex relationship between tannins, salivary proteins, lipids in food and in oral membranes. The action of tannins on taste sensations and astringency depends on their colloidal state. Although taste sensations are most likely due to interactions with taste receptors, astringency results from strong binding to proline-rich salivary proteins that otherwise lubricate the palate. Tannins disorder non-keratinized mucosa in mouth, possibly perturbing taste receptor function. The 10-15% ethanol present in wines potentiates this action. Cholesterol present in large quantities in keratinized mucosa prevents any disordering action on these oral membranes. Polyphenols bind strongly to the lipid droplets of fatty foods, a situation that reduces the astringency perceived when drinking a tannic wine, the so-called "camembert effect". Based on binding constants mainly measured by NMR, a comprehensive thermodynamic model of the interrelation between polyphenols, salivary proteins, lipids and taste receptors is presented.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds are partially removed during fining, which may influence the organoleptic properties of beverages. Among phenolic compounds, tannins have been widely associated to the taste of beverages (namely astringency and bitterness). Furthermore, phenolic acids and anthocyanins may also influence bitterness and the latter are also responsible for beverages' color. Thus, it is necessary to perform molecular studies to better understand the effect of fining agents in the overall phenolic composition of beverages and the resulting organoleptic changes. The molecular interactions between these three classes of phenolic compounds and a yeast protein extract (YPE), designed as a new fining agent, was studied. The binding affinities were assessed by fluorescence quenching at two temperatures (21 °C and 37 °C) and in two reaction media (water and wine model solution). The size of aggregates formed was characterized by Dynamic Light Scattering and the selectivity of protein interaction was analyzed by electrophoresis. Overall, pentagalloylglucoside (tannin) showed the highest binding affinity for YPE, followed by malvidin 3-glucoside (anthocyanin), p-coumaric acid (phenolic acid) and gallic acid (phenolic acid). The studied temperatures and solvents affected the interaction affinities as well as the aggregates' size. Binding selectivity of proteins from YPE was not found. These results open new perspectives to control the fining process by using the YPE as a fining agent taking into account the further effect in the organoleptic properties of beverages.

Abstract
Macromolecules including condensed tannins and polysaccharides impact wine taste and especially astringency. Asymmetrical Flow-Field-Flow-Fractionation (AF4) coupled to UV detection (UV), multi-angle light scattering (MALS) and refractive index detection (dRI) has been proposed to separate red wine colloids. The present work aimed at relating AF4-mutidetection profiles with red wine astringency. Fifty commercial red wines characterized by a trained sensory panel were analysed by AF4-UV-MALS-dRI and UV-visible spectroscopy. The analytical data set was built by selecting the three variables most predictive of the astringency score from each table (UV, dRI, MALS, Mw distribution, and UV-visible spectra of whole wine, permeate and retentate A4F fractions) and analysed by principal component analysis. Red wine astringency was more related to variables extracted from the AF4 data than to UV- absorbance of the wine or permeate, confirming the relevance of AF4-multidetection for analysis of the colloidal fraction involved in this perception.

Abstract
The present study is aimed at evaluating the effect of different processing techniques on astringency reduction, nutrient retention, and sensory attributes in cashew apple fruit and its juice. Astringency attribute was measured by tannin content, while nutrition profile by ascorbic acid, total sugars, and antioxidant activity. Hot water, steaming, and microwave were selected as the source of heat application for treating whole fruit, where the process variables were the temperature and exposure time. The non-thermal technique selected to treat juice was by using bio coagulants, i.e., dried okra pod and drumstick seed powder, where the independent parameters were concentration and settling time. The processes were optimized using a multivariate approach coupled with full factorial design. The obtained results indicated that samples, with 42.6% tannin removal, were rated as being the least astringent. The use of dried okra pod powder under optimal conditions (0.3% concentration, 0.5 h settling time) was found to be the best in reducing astringency while retaining the nutrient and desirable sensory attributes. Maximum tannin removal (48.9 ± 1.6%) with minimum loss of ascorbic acid (8.1 ± 0.9%), total sugar (4.8 ± 0.5%) and antioxidant activity (11.1 ± 1.0) with high sensory score (92.7 ± 1.6%) was achieved with composite desirability of 0.85.

Abstract
Based on the comprehensive evaluation system of agricultural green development index (AGDI), this paper uses entropy weight method and linear weighted sum method to measure the agricultural green development level of 31 provinces in China from 2013 to 2018. We then incorporate spatial correlation into the traditional convergence test model, study the spatial convergence of AGDI, and explore the reasons for regional differences in AGDI. The results show that the level of AGDI in China showed an overall growth trend during the sample survey period, but there were significant differences in the rate of AGDI among different regions, mainly manifested as "eastern > western > central." The AGDI shows a significant positive spatial correlation on the whole, and its overall spatial distribution is characterized by high-high agglomeration and low-low agglomeration. The provinces with higher and lower level of AGDI still maintain the original relatively concentrated distribution in geographical space. On this basis, the study examines the regional differences of AGDI and its evolution by Dagum Gini coefficient decomposition and spatial convergence. The results showed that the overall difference of AGDI showed a fluctuating downward trend. The intra-regional difference of AGDI in the western region was the largest, and that in the eastern region was the smallest. The contribution rate of intensity of transvariation among regions was the main source of the relative difference of AGDI. Meanwhile, the AGDI of the overall, eastern, central, and western regions present significant σ convergence and conditional β convergence. Except for the central region, the overall, eastern, and western regions present significant absolute β convergence. The low-level areas of AGDI have significant "catch-up effect" on the areas with high-level AGDI. Based on the above results, this paper also puts forward some policy suggestions from the perspective of cross-regional collaborative governance to improve China's agricultural green development mode and narrow the regional differences of China's agricultural green development.

Abstract
Unbalanced wine astringency, caused by a gap between phenolic and technological grape maturities, is one of the consequences of the global climate change in the vitiviniculture. To resolve it, potential strategies are being currently used, like the addition of commercial yeast mannoproteins (MPs) to wines. In this work, the main interactions responsible for the wine astringent sensation, namely, interactions between human salivary proteins and wine flavanols have been studied by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and liquid chromatography coupled to DAD and MS detectors (HPLC-DAD-MS), in presence or absence of two MPs with different saccharide/protein ratio. The results indicate that there are differences on the substrate specificity for each mannoprotein and that its action mechanism could change not only depending on the mannoprotein composition but also on the flavanol structure. MPs with elevated carbohydrate content could act thought the stabilization of soluble aggregates with human salivary proteins and flavanols, mainly non-galloylated flavanol oligomers, whereas MPs with higher protein percentage mostly could precipitate flavanols (mainly non-galloylated ones with low degree of polymerization) which partially prevents the formation of insoluble flavanol-salivary protein aggregates.

Abstract
Whey proteins have very interesting properties including, high solubility in water, strong interactions with polyphenols, aggregation properties and are classified as GRAS. Here the application of whey proteins to improve food formulations is evaluated. In particular, the reduction of astringency in wine by whey proteins and peptides was assessed applying an analytical method based on determination of tannins. As shown previously for β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) and β-Lg-Caseinomacropeptides fractions, here it was shown that hydrolysates interacted with polymeric polyphenols such as tannins which, led to their complexation and precipitation effectively reducing astringency. In addition, nanoparticles of β-Lg and sweet whey were produced by applying a method developed previously in our group based on heat induced denaturation which could consistently produce nanoparticles of 200-300 nm with high colloidal stability. Here further characterisation of β-Lg nanoparticles showed that addition of ethanol up to 28% led to nanoparticles destabilisation mainly due to a reduction in β-Lg overall charge. The application of centrifugal force above 863g led to the disruption of colloidal stability and β-Lg sedimentation. However, nanoparticles were stable to freeze drying conditions. Furthermore, it was shown that sweet whey could be used instead of β-Lg to produce nanoparticles of similar characteristics. These β-Lg nanoparticles formed nanocomplexes with resveratrol which, resulted in improved solubility and increased antioxidant activity under pasteurisation conditions. The isomerization from trans to cis and a protective effect of nanoparticles against some chemical changes that result in reduced activity could explain these results. Thus, whey proteins show promise in their application for improved formulations of food/beverages with bioactive ingredients.

Abstract
Throughout the apple juice and cider making process, polyphenols undergo enzymatic oxidation which generates a great variety of polyphenol oxidation products. Since 5'-O-Caffeoylquinic acid (CQA) is one of the major phenolic compounds and the preferential substrate for polyphenoloxidase in apple juice, its oxidation leads to the formation of newly formed molecules by which dehydrodimers (MW 706 Da) are included. Interactions of salivary proteins (SP) with native polyphenols is a well-known phenomenon, but their interactions with polyphenol oxidation products has not been studied yet. In this work, we decided to decipher the interactions between CQA dehydrodimers and SP (gPRPs, aPRPs, statherins/P-B peptide, and cystatins) using HPLC-UV and fluorescence. These results showed that contrary to what was expected, CQA dehydrodimers presented a low interaction with PRPs, but revealed a specific interaction with statherins/P-B peptide and cystatins. This work settles for the first time the interactions between SP and polyphenol oxidation products.

Abstract
Salivary proteins have the potential to alter oral sensory perception of foods. In rodents, dietary polyphenol exposure increases salivary concentrations of polyphenol-binding proteins and several cystatins, which correlate with less aversion to polyphenol-rich solutions. If similar salivary shifts occur in humans, then increasing dietary polyphenols may improve orosensory experience of polyphenol-rich foods. We hypothesized that small dietary changes, focused on polyphenols, would increase expression of salivary binding proteins for polyphenols and thus suppress unpleasant polyphenol sensations. However, analogs of salivary polyphenol-binding proteins are found in foods. Thus, we also hypothesized that food-sourced analogs of these salivary proteins would mitigate changes in saliva and sensation. Human subjects (N=55) alternated weeks of consuming a low polyphenol diet and then a regular diet plus a polyphenol-rich chocolate milk (almond, containing no polyphenol-binding proteins, or bovine, containing polyphenol-binding proteins). Statistical analyses revealed both chocolate milk interventions corresponded to changes in relative expression of 96 proteins and calculated concentration of 146 proteins (both after correction for false discovery rate), out of 1,176 proteins identified through proteomics. Of the proteins that changed, proline-rich proteins and cystatins were noticeable, which reflects prior work in animal studies. Subjects rated all chocolate milks as less flavorful after the bovine chocolate milk intervention week compared to low polyphenol weeks, but generally sensory changes were minimal. However, the results confirm that dietary changes coincide with salivary changes, and that some of those changes occur in proteins that have potential to influence oral sensations.

Abstract
Astringency is an important quality attribute of green tea infusion, and (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) is the main contributor to astringency. Turbidity was used to predict the intensity of astringency for EGCG. The interactions between the selected proteins and EGCG, and the impacts of temperature, pH, protein structure, and EGCG concentration were studied. Mucin was selected as the protein in study for the prediction of EGCG astringency intensity. A predictive model (R2 = 0.994) was developed based on the relationship between the astringency of EGCG and the turbidity of EGCG/mucin mixtures at pH 5.0 and 37 °C. The fluorescence quenching analyses showed the interactions between EGCG and the selected proteins, which induced the reversible protein molecule conformational changes. The interactions were considered as the main reason that causes the astringency of tea infusions. The results provided a biochemical approach to explore the sensory qualities of green tea.

Abstract
Girdling is an important horticultural practice that allows increased yields or modulated ripening but not much is known how it affects metabolic processes. Trunk girdling was performed at fruit set using a single-blade knife on two table grape cultivar SUPERIOR SEEDLESS® and SABLE SEEDLESS®. Sampling of berries was carried out 1 or 9 weeks after girdling in 2017 from both cultivars and 7 and 9 weeks after girdling of 'Sable' in 2018. As expected, girdling resulted in consistent increase in berry size but total soluble content of mature 'Superior' berries was not affected and in 'Sable' it was slightly reduced in one of the two seasons examined. One week after girdling, abscisic acid and gibberellin content was higher in fruitlets from girdled vines and genes of the phenylpropanoid pathway were induced in both cultivars. Berry color development of 'Sable' measured both by auto-fluorescence and concentration of anthocyanins was reduced upon girdling. In contrast, flavan-3-ol and flavonol content, and total proanthcyanidins (PA) content increased 1.8-fold while the mean degree polymerization of the PA decreased from 26 to 21 upon girdling. Girdling reduced the levels of fatty acid derived volatiles in berries of 'Superior' and 'Sable'. In 'Sable', the total terpene level and the level of volatiles released after acid hydrolysis, decreased upon girdling. Overall, our study indicates that girdling can divert metabolic pathways in a manner that may have significant effect on the taste and flavor of grapes.

Abstract
The present study was aimed at increasing the understanding of red wine mouthfeel by investigating the potential cross-modal effect of aroma and establishing relationships between sensory dimensions and chemical measurements. Investigations involved a set of 42 non-wooded red wines that were described with a novel application of a variant of the rate-all-that-apply sensory methodology ("rate-K attributes") by a group of Spanish wine experts under two conditions: (1) with no aroma perception (using nose clips) and (2) with aroma perception. In parallel, ethanol content, pH, titratable acidity, tannin activity, concentration of tannins, and spectroscopic measures of wines were determined. Results suggest that aroma does not play a main effect on taste or mouthfeel perception of red wines, except for oily mouthfeel, which was hypothesised to be masked by earthy aromas and enhanced by alcoholic nuances attributed to cognitive interactions. Independent and non-correlated mouthfeel dimensions such as dry/silky and sticky, grainy, prickly or oily were also identified. Tannin activity was shown to be highly positively correlated to dry on the palate, and tannin concentration with both overall dry and dry on the palate. A significant partial least squares regression model showed that tannin concentration and activity (positive contribution) as well as pH values (negative) were good predictors of the mouthfeel dimension mainly related to dry and sticky terms.

Abstract
Food polyphenols in fruits juices, tea, coffee, wine and beer confer sensory properties such as colour, astringency and bitterness. The development of functional healthy drinks without the unpleasant sensory feeling is boosting research for a clearer understanding on the interactions of polyphenols within the oral mucosa. In this study we investigated the interaction of astringent polyphenols, namely ECG, EGCG, procyanidin B4 and PGG, with lipids in model membranes by spectroscopic techniques. The membrane model was built varying the cholesterol content to mimic mouth regions and experiments were conducted at pH 5 to mimic the pH drop at the moment of beverage (e.g. green tea, red wine) intake. Fluorescence quenching results conducted on LUVs with cholesterol molar fractions ranging between 0.34 < χchol < 0.74 and similar size distributions (122.9 ± 3.7 nm) showed that interaction of polyphenols is structure- and concentration-dependent. Also, the decrease of partition constants (Kp) with increasing cholesterol content (χchol) suggest that the affinity of polyphenols is weaker in cholesterol-rich liposomes. STD results revealed that the interaction of EGCG and PGG with membrane lipids involved mainly galloyl residues. Overall, spectroscopic data show that polyphenols interact to higher extent with more polar regions found in buccal, flour of the mouth and gingiva regions than with more hydrophobic regions located in the palate and tongue supporting that lipid microenvironments play a role in oral sensory perception.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to provide quantitative data on the catechin contents and underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms in cucumber during fruit development. The dynamic changes in the total catechin contents and RNA-seq-based transcriptome profiling of the flesh and peel of the cucumber cultivar 'YanBai', which is strongly astringent, were examined at three key developmental stages 3, 6 and 9 days post-pollination. The total catechin content decreased as cucumber fruit developed and was significantly lower in the flesh than in the peel. In total, 5092 and 4004 genes were found to be differently expressed in the peel and flesh, respectively. Based on a functional annotation, eight structural genes encode enzymes involved in the catechin biosynthesis pathway. Three genes encoding 4-coumarate-CoA ligases, two genes encoding chalcone isomerases, two genes encoding dihydroflavonol-4-reductase and one gene each encoding a phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, flavanone 3-hydroxylase and cinnamate 4-hydroxylase were identified as affecting the catechin content of cucumber. The transcriptome data also revealed the significance of transcription factors, including WD40-repeat proteins, MYB and bHLH, in regulating catechin biosynthesis. These findings help increase our understanding of the molecular mechanisms controlling catechin biosynthesis and astringency development in cucumber fruit.

Abstract
Selecting the appropriate type of barrel for wine maturation but also deciding on the optimum maturation length, is a challenge for winemakers. As different types of barrel woods emerge, it is of great importance for a guideline to be established, which could facilitate winemaking decisions. Since the sensory perception of the finished wine, and particularly the intensity of astringency, is a decisive factor for the quality of a barrel-aged wine, in this experiment, the structural characteristics of wine proanthocyanidins were determined and their correlation with astringency was established. According to the results obtained, the proanthocyanidin content and the type of subunit that is dominant in tannin chains could be used to construct an astringency estimation model. The findings could provide winemakers with a useful tool when deciding how long to mature a specific type of wine in a specific wood container without making it appear coarse and astringent.

Abstract
Phenols from olive mill waste water (OMWW) represent valuable functional ingredients. The negative impact on sensory quality limits their use in functional food formulations. Chemical interactions phenols/biopolymers and their consequences on bioactivity in plant-base foods have been widely investigated, but no studies to date have explored the variation of bitterness, astringency and pungency induced by OMWW phenols as a function of the food composition. The aim of the paper was to profile the sensory and chemical properties of phenols from OMWW in plant-base foods varied in their macro-composition. Four phenol concentrations were selected (0.44, 1.00, 2.25, 5.06 g/kg) to induce significant variations of bitterness, sourness, astringency and pungency in three plant-base food: proteins/neutral pH - bean purée (BP), starch/neutral pH - potato purée (PP), fiber/low pH - tomato juice (TJ). The macro-composition affected the amount of the phenols recovered from functionalized food. The highest recovery was from TJ and the lowest from BP. Two groups of 29 and 27 subjects, trained to general Labelled Magnitude Scale and target sensations, participated in the evaluation of psychophysical curves of OMWW phenols and of functionalized plant-base foods, respectively. Target sensations were affected by the food macro-composition. Bitterness increased with phenol concentration in all foods. Astringency and sourness slightly increased with concentration, reaching the weak-moderate intensity at the highest phenol concentration in PP and TJ only. Pungency was suppressed in BP and perceived at weak-moderate intensity in PP and TJ sample at the highest phenol concentration. Proteins/neutral pH plant-food (BP) resulted more appropriate to counteract the impact of added phenol on negative sensory properties thus allowing to optimize the balance between health and sensory properties.

Abstract
It has been suggested that the addition of flavonols (i.e. white grape skins) improves and stabilizes the color of red wines. However, it has been shown that flavonol glycosides produce a mouth-drying and mouth-coating sensation at very low threshold concentrations. Moreover, the addition of polysaccharides to wines is a practice addressed to improve the smoothness and roundness and correct excessive astringency, so we have studied the effect of the addition of yeast mannoproteins (MP) on the interaction between quercetin 3-glucoside and human salivary peptides. Sensory analysis showed the first evidence of the mannoprotein smoothing effect when the flavonol is added to wine. Additionally, MP/SP/polyphenol interactions were studied using fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering and isothermal titration calorimetry. Results obtained indicate not only the existence of interactions between mannoproteins and flavonols but also between mannoproteins and salivary proteins (SP), suggesting a possible formation of protein/polyphenol/polysaccharide ternary complex.

Abstract
The interaction of tannins with salivary proteins is involved in astringency. This paper focussed on saliva lining oral mucosae, the mucosal pellicle. Using a cell-based model, the impact of two dietary tannins (EgC and EgCG) on the mucosal pellicle structure and properties was investigated by microscopic techniques. The role of basic Proline-Rich-Proteins (bPRPs) in protecting the mucosal pellicle was also evaluated. At low (0.05 mM) tannin concentration, below the sensory detection threshold, the distribution of salivary mucins MUC5B on cells remained unaffected. At 0.5 and 1 mM, MUC5B-tannin aggregates were observed and their size increased with tannin concentration and with galloylation. In addition, 3 mM EgCG resulted in higher friction forces measured by AFM. In presence of bPRPs, the size distribution of aggregates was greatly modified and tended to resemble that of the "no tannin" condition, highlighting that bPRPs have a protective effect against the structural alteration induced by dietary tannins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The current astringency evaluation for herbs has become dissatisfied with the requirement of pharmaceutical process. It needed a new method to accurately assess astringency. METHODS First, quinine, sucrose, citric acid, sodium chloride, monosodium glutamate, and tannic acid (TA) were analyzed by electronic tongue (e-tongue) to determine the approximate region of astringency in partial least square (PLS) map. Second, different concentrations of TA were detected to define the standard curve of astringency. Meanwhile, coordinate-concentration relationship could be obtained by fitting the PLS abscissa of standard curve and corresponding concentration. Third, Chebulae Fructus (CF), Yuganzi throat tablets (YGZTT), and Sanlejiang oral liquid (SLJOL) were tested to define the region in PLS map. Finally, the astringent intensities of samples were calculated combining with the standard coordinate-concentration relationship and expressed by concentrations of TA. Then, Euclidean distance (Ed) analysis and human sensory test were processed to verify the results. RESULTS The fitting equation between concentration and abscissa of TA was Y = 0.00498 × e(-X/0.51035) + 0.10905 (r = 0.999). The astringency of 1, 0.1 mg/mL CF was predicted at 0.28, 0.12 mg/mL TA; 2, 0.2 mg/mL YGZTTs was predicted at 0.18, 0.11 mg/mL TA; 0.002, 0.0002 mg/mL SLJOL was predicted at 0.15, 0.10 mg/mL TA. The validation results showed that the predicted astringency of e-tongue was basically consistent to human sensory and was more accuracy than Ed analysis. CONCLUSION The study indicated the established method was objective and feasible. It provided a new quantitative method for astringency of herbs. SUMMARY The astringency of Chebulae Fructus, Yuganzi throat tablets, and Sanlejiang oral liquid was predicted by electronic tongueEuclidean distance analysis and human sensory test verified the resultsA new strategy which was objective, simple, and sensitive to compare astringent intensity of herbs and preparations was provided. Abbreviations used: CF: Chebulae Fructus; E-tongue: Electronic tongue; Ed: Euclidean distance; PLS: Partial least square; PCA: Principal component analysis; SLJOL: Sanlejiang oral liquid; TA: Tannic acid; VAS: Visual analog scale; YGZTT: Yuganzi throat tablets.
