Two decades of supertasting: where do we stand?

Physiology & behavior - 24 Oct 2011

Hayes John E, Keast Russell S J

Abstract excerpt

Oral chemosensation can vary greatly across individuals, both in terms of the lowest concentration that can be detected (threshold) and in the magnitude of perceived intensity for stimuli at higher concentrations (suprathreshold response). Individuals who experience greater taste intensity are often termed supertasters, and this phenotype has typically been measured via the suprathreshold bitterness of the...
