Thermal taster status: Temperature modulation of cortical response to sweetness perception (2020)
Journal Article
Eldeghaidy, S., Yang, Q., Abualait, T., Williamson, A., Hort, J., & Francis, S. T. (2021). Thermal taster status: Temperature modulation of cortical response to sweetness perception. Physiology and Behavior, 230, Article 113266. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physbeh.2020.113266

© 2020 Temperature is known to impact taste perception, but its reported effect on sweet taste perception in humans is inconsistent. Here, we assess whether thermal taste phenotype alters the temperature modulation of the brains’ response to sweet sa...

Impact of capsaicin on aroma release and perception from flavoured solutions (2020)
Journal Article
Yang, N., Yang, Q., Chen, J., & Fisk, I. (2021). Impact of capsaicin on aroma release and perception from flavoured solutions. LWT - Food Science and Technology, 138, Article 110613. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.lwt.2020.110613

Capsaicin is the main component in chilli pepper, which contributes to the spiciness of the food. However, the role of capsaicin on aroma perception has been controversial in the literature. This is the first study exploring the impact of capsaicin o... Read More about Impact of capsaicin on aroma release and perception from flavoured solutions.

Selection of potential molecular markers for cheese ripening and quality prediction by NMR spectroscopy (2020)
Journal Article
