Fatty acids are the chemical moieties that thought to stimulate oral nutrient sensors, which detect fat content of foods. In animals, hypersensitivity fatty is associated with decreased intake and body weight. The aims present study were investigate acid sensitivity, food selection BMI in human subjects. included two parts; 1 established thirty-one subjects (29 ( sem 1·4) years, 22·8 0·5) kg/m 2 ) taste thresholds using 3-AFC (3-Alternate Forced Choice Methodology) for oleic, linoleic lauric...
There are five common, independent measures used to characterize taste function in humans: detection and recognition thresholds (DT RT), suprathreshold intensity ratings of prototypical tastants, propylthiouracil (PROP) bitterness intensity, fungiform papillae (FP) number.We employed all methods assess 65 women (21.5 ± 4 years, BMI 22.3 2.8 kg/m2). Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated between the different measures.The DT RT positively correlated for sweet, bitter, sour, umami (p...
Detection thresholds and psychophysical curves were established for caffeine, quinine-HCl (QHCl), propylthiouracil (PROP) in a sample of 33 subjects (28 female mean age 24 ± 4). The detection threshold (±standard error) QHCl, PROP was 1.2 0.12, 0.0083 0.001, 0.088 0.07 mM, respectively. Pearson product–moment analysis revealed no significant correlations between the compounds. Psychophysical constructed each bitter compound over 6 concentrations. There incremental points individual QHCl...
Background 'Taste' changes are commonly reported during chemotherapy. It is unclear to what extent this relates actual in taste function or appetite and food liking how these affect dietary intake nutritional status. Patients methods This prospective, repeated measures cohort study recruited participants from three oncology clinics. Women (n = 52) prescribed adjuvant chemotherapy underwent standardised testing of perception, at six time points measure change baseline. Associations between...
Taste is the chemical sense responsible for detection of non-volatile chemicals in potential foods. For fat to be considered as one taste primaries humans, certain criteria must met including class affective stimuli, receptors specific stimuli on bud cells (TBC), afferent fibres from TBC taste-processing regions brain, perception independent other qualities and downstream physiological effects. The breakdown products macronutrients carbohydrates (sugars) proteins (amino acids) are activation...
To determine the diet quality of a group young adults and explore its associations with two food-related behaviours (involvement in meal preparation consumption commercially prepared meals).Cross-sectional study adults. Sample characteristics, dietary intake were assessed using self-administered questionnaire including an FFQ. Diet was measured fifteen-item Dietary Guideline Index (DGI) designed to assess adherence Australian guidelines. One-way ANOVA, t tests multiple linear regression...
