What's being measured
Primary outcomes are the specific endpoints the trial is designed to prove or disprove.
-
Similarity of taste sensations
Time frame: 1 visit (only visit)
Participants sort the solutions into groups, and then combine the groups based on which samples are similar in oral sensation. This is used to determine how similar or different each sample is from the others. We are primarily interested in how the fatty acids (hexenoic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and decenoic acid) are sorted, and whether they are distinct from other tastes.
Sponsor's own description
Recent research indicates that fatty acids in food may have a taste. There is no lexicon to describe the sensation of the fatty acids, but participants frequently describe the sensation as bitter or sour. The proposed study will ask participants who have been screened for their ability to detect fatty acids to sort a variety of taste stimuli, including sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami, and fatty acid tastes. Observing how the participants sort the stimuli will allow us to determine if the fatty acid taste is unique from other taste sensations.
