| Abstract: | Measures of human sensitivities to various sweet compounds conductedat threshold (91 subjects, 7 sweeteners) and at suprathresholdlevels (9 subjects, 12 sweeteners) show interindividual differences.Multidimensional analysis indicates that sweet taste can berepresented in a tridimensional continuum if 12 compounds areconsidered. Results are speculatively interpreted as indirectevidence for the existence of several receptor sites cooperatingin sweet taste chemoreception. |
