Investigating the Influence of Age and Saliva Flow on the Perception of Protein Fortified Foods and Beverages
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Solid Model and Liquid Model for Individual Difference and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 70 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate whether protein fortification of foods and beverages causes mouthdrying and mucoadhesion and whether this is influenced by age and saliva flow.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Cupcakes will be used, with the amount of protein varied to study the effect on perception of the products (using sensory methods rating drying and discrimination tests 'which is the stronger in drying'). Measuring mucoadhesion via protein content remaining in saliva samples following consumption of cupcakes.
To study the perception of whey protein beverages using repeated consumption sensory methods (e.g. rating mouthdrying over repeated sips of the drink).
