Food oral processing: Some important underpinning principles of eating and sensory perception

TL;DR: The human oral cavity plays a crucial role in sensory perception and food breakdown. Oral processing involves sensory perception, mechanical destruction, biochemical changes, and colloidal destabilization of food.

TL;DR: This thesis validated rapid-sensory profiling methodologies and identified flavours driving liking within commercial and newly-bred strawberry cultivars, to assist in the development of well-liked Australian cultivars.

TL;DR: A brief, up-to-date overview of the literature on the basics of normal salivary composition, flow, and function is provided.

TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art in texture research can be found in this article, where the authors define the components of complex textural characteristics, develop an understanding of the perceptual interplay among texture parameters and between textural and other modalities, explore the breakdown pathways in the mouth for various food categories, and repeat earlier studies on consumer attitudes and preferences in the context of 21st century cultures and lifestyles.

TL;DR: The TA.XT2 Texture Analyser as discussed by the authors was used to measure texture and Viscosity in the test setup. But it was not a suitable test procedure to evaluate the effect of temperature on texture measurements.
