Sensory Profiling of Dairy Products In Sensory Profiling of Dairy Products, distinguished dairy technologist Dr John J. Tuohy delivers an expert discussion of advances in the sensory profiling of dairy products, including the physiology of sensory perception, sensory profiling methodology, statistical data analysis and consumer studies. The book covers the sensory profiling of dairy products like fluid milk, yoghurt, a wide range of internationally popular cheese varieties, ice cream, butter, and milkfat products. Beginning with a historical review of the sensory evaluation of dairy products, the book covers recent advances in the practice. The editor has also included resources that profile the sensory attributes of the products most important to the dairy industry: fluid milks, cream and milkfat products, frozen dairy desserts, and a variety of cheeses. Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to sensory analysis and consumer mindsets and emotions regarding dairy products Comprehensive explorations of the chemistry, biochemistry and physiology of sensory perception of the flavour and mouthfeel stimuli imparted by dairy products Practical discussions of the sensory attributes of fat-rich dairy and ethnic Indian products Fulsome treatments of the sensory profiles of natural and processed cheese varieties Perfect for dairy professionals, regulators, and lawmakers, Sensory Profiling of Dairy Products will also earn a place in the libraries of food marketing professionals, retailers, and culinary practitioners, as well as professors and students with an interest in dairy products.

While the science of yogurt is nearly as old as the origin of mankind, there have been rapid changes in yogurt development since the turn of the 19th century, fueled by continuing developments in biological sciences. Development and Manufacture of Yogurt and Other Functional Dairy Products presents a comprehensive review of all aspects of yogurt an

In defining sensory properties of products, descriptive techniques that utilize trained panels are used. Arthur D. Little, Inc. pioneered a desriptive technique in the 1950's known as the "Flavor Profile" that laid the foundation for the development of current desriptive techniques used today in academia and industry. Several collections of published papers are reprinted in this book. The main areas covered include dairy products, meats, alcoholic beverages, textile materials and general applications. In addition, Dr. Gacula has prepared 40 pages of new text material on (1) Descriptive Sensory Analysis Methods, and (2) Computer Software. Methods for statistical systems (SAS) computer programs are provided
