More than smell. COVID-19 is associated with severe impairment of smell, taste, and chemesthesis

Valentina Parma, +121 more
- 24 May 2020 - 
TL;DR: The results show that COVID-19-associated chemosensory impairment is not limited to smell, but also affects taste and chemesthesis, and suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection may disrupt sensory-neural mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Sensory Evaluation in Consumer Acceptance of Plant-Based Meat Analogs and Meat Extenders: A Scoping Review

TL;DR: Original research papers are reviewed that evaluate sensory attributes of meat analogs and meat extenders through hedonic testing and/or descriptive analysis to demonstrate how these analytical approaches are important for consumer acceptance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Differential bitterness in capsaicin, piperine, and ethanol associates with polymorphisms in multiple bitter taste receptor genes

TL;DR: It is confirmed that capsaicin, piperine and ethanol elicit bitterness in addition to burning/stinging sensations and it would be beneficial to determine which TAS2R receptors are activated in vitro by chemesthetic compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quinine Bitterness and Grapefruit Liking Associate with Allelic Variants in TAS2R31.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined quinine bitterness and remembered liking for grapefruit juice to test whether they associate with SNPs in another nearby gene, TASR2R31.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perceptual and affective responses to sampled capsaicin differ by reported intake

TL;DR: It is confirmed that burn in the laboratory differs with reported chili intake, with infrequent consumers reporting more burn, and it is concluded the differences observed here and elsewhere are not likely due to differences in how participants use rating scales.
