Journal Article
Dietz, C., Yang, Q., & Ford, R. (2022). The impact of time standardising TCATA by modality data on the multisensory profile of beer. Food Quality and Preference, 98, Article 104506. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodqual.2021.104506

Temporal sensory profiles are increasingly assessed ‘by modality’ to investigate complex profiles and multisensory properties of foods and beverages. Panellists’ noise in temporal data caused by differences in oral and cognitive processing cannot ent...

A TCATA by modality approach to study the multisensory temporal profile of hop bitter and flavour products applied in lager (2021)
Journal Article
Dietz, C., Cook, D., Yang, Q., Wilson, C., & Ford, R. (2022). A TCATA by modality approach to study the multisensory temporal profile of hop bitter and flavour products applied in lager. Food Quality and Preference, 97, Article 104470. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodqual.2021.104470

Previous research suggested that iso-alpha-acids and hulupones add different bitterness profiles to beer and hop-derived volatiles modify temporal dimensions of bitterness qualities via cross-modal interactions. This research aimed to understand the... Read More about A TCATA by modality approach to study the multisensory temporal profile of hop bitter and flavour products applied in lager.

Rare sugars: metabolic impacts and mechanisms of action: a scoping review (2021)
Journal Article

Food manufacturers are under increasing pressure to limit the amount of free sugars in their products. Many have reformulated products to replace sucrose, glucose and fructose with alternative sweeteners, but some of these have been associated with a...

Consumer understanding of beer and wine body: An exploratory study of an ill-defined concept (2021)
Journal Article
Ivanova, N., Yang, Q., Bastian, S. E., Wilkinson, K. L., & Ford, R. (2022). Consumer understanding of beer and wine body: An exploratory study of an ill-defined concept. Food Quality and Preference, 98, Article 104383. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodqual.2021.104383

Body is a key sensory characteristic for beverage acceptability, drinkability and an important consideration when making a purchase decision. Evidence suggests that consumers perceive low-alcohol beverages as lacking body. Despite the significance of...

Assessment of spatial lingual tactile sensitivity using a gratings orientation test (2021)
Journal Article
Rabitti, N. S., Appiani, M., Cattaneo, C., Ford, R., & Laureati, M. (2021). Assessment of spatial lingual tactile sensitivity using a gratings orientation test. Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2021(175), Article e62898. https://doi.org/10.3791/62898

Individual thresholds by R-index estimates are calculated using a gratings orientation test (6 different tools of increasing grating size from 0.20-1.25 mm) to assess spatial lingual tactile sensitivity. During the experiment, the subjects are blindf... Read More about Assessment of spatial lingual tactile sensitivity using a gratings orientation test.

Exploring the multisensory perception of terpene alcohol and sesquiterpene rich hop extracts in lager style beer (2021)
Journal Article
Dietz, C., Cook, D., Wilson, C., Oliveira, P., & Ford, R. (2021). Exploring the multisensory perception of terpene alcohol and sesquiterpene rich hop extracts in lager style beer. Food Research International, 148, Article 110598. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodres.2021.110598

Understanding the contribution of hop essential oil to the multisensory profile of beer is known to be challenging because of its chemical and sensory complexity. Limited research has been conducted investigating hop-derived volatiles' role in the mo...
