Description

Master the fundamentals of product evaluation with Descriptive Sensory Analysis in Practice by Wiley-Blackwell. This essential text explores the descriptive techniques used by trained panels to define the sensory properties of various products. It traces the history of these methods back to the 1950s when Arthur D. Little, Inc. developed the "Flavor Profile" method, which serves as the foundation for modern academic and industrial sensory analysis. This book provides a comprehensive collection of published papers covering a wide range of practical applications. Readers will find detailed insights into the analysis of dairy products, meats, alcoholic beverages, and textile materials. Beyond historical context and reprints, the book includes 40 pages of new text material prepared by Dr. Gacula to provide updated perspectives on the field.
