Sensory Evaluation
What is Sensory Evaluation?
Sensory evaluation is a systematic study of human response to the Physico-chemical properties, which makes it possible to collect information about the sensitivity of human sense, and the four dimensions of sensory perception. i.e. qualitative, quantitative, hedonic, and temporal dimensions. It consists of techniques that offer analytical information about the sensory attribute of food, and non-food products to share information about the technical specification of the product, and the hedonic perception of the product as perceived by the consumer. Sensory evaluation tests are essential for food research projects and product development. It is a way of evoking, measuring, analyzing, and interpreting the reaction of foods and materials by the senses of smell, taste, sight, feel touch, and hearing.
