Difference methods are the most basic form of sensory test and are relatively simple procedures whereby samples are compared directly to other samples and assessors are asked to determine if they are the same or different. Descriptive methods, involves the training of panellists, which are then used to quantitatively determine the sensory attributes of samples. On the other hand, 鈥榓ffective methods鈥� use hedonics or ask untrained assessors their opinion of a product or products.

鈥淎 number of innovations in recent years have resulted in the development of some new sensory tools which are described here as 鈥榥ovel methods鈥�. These include methods such as 鈥橬apping鈥� or 鈥楶reference Mapping鈥�, 鈥楩lash Profiling鈥�, 鈥楻anking Descriptive Analysis (RDA)鈥�, 鈥楿ltra-Flash Profiling鈥� and 鈥楥heck All That Apply (CATA)鈥� or Rate All That Apply (RATA) methods,鈥� Dr O鈥橲ullivan explained.

鈥淭o a certain extent these new novel methods have narrowed the divide between the rigid rules of classic descriptive profiling and the emotional responses involved with affective sensory methods.鈥�

The second section of the book investigates the product development process and how the application of sensory analysis, instrumental methods and multivariate data analysis can improve new product development, including packaging optimisation and shelf life.

The final section defines the important sensory criteria and modalities of different food and beverage products including Dairy, Meat, Confectionary, Bakery, Beverage (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and presents case studies indicating how the methods described in the first two sections have been successfully and innovatively applied to these different foods and beverages.

Professor Derek V. Byrne, Professor of Sensory Science at Aarhus 深夜亚洲福利久久, Denmark, described the new publication as 鈥渢imely considering the massive challenges food and beverage developers face in getting their products to market. Different statistics suggest that anywhere between 70 and 98% of all new product launches ultimately fail. One could venture to say that this is in large part because their approaches are not always sensory and consumer-driven with a core focus on end user input.

New "Handbook for Sensory and Consumer-Driven New Product Development" published by our partner

鈥淭his new handbook provides a critical update to the sector from this perspective as well as a welcome, well written and erudite addition to the wider sensory canon. This book must also be considered to form part of the sensory science syllabus internationally to improve the calibre of our graduates entering the food industry.鈥�

In his current role Dr O鈥橲ullivan works as a sensory and product reformulation project coordinator on large-scale, multimillion euro research projects. For many years he has managed the Sensory Unit of the packaging group at UCC working on sensory and flavour-based projects involving a diverse selection of products as well as lecturing in sensory science.

Previously Dr O鈥橲ullivan worked in the food industry as a sensory scientist and flavour chemist for Diageo Baileys and Guinness as well as holding the position of Global Regulatory Affairs Manager for Diageo Baileys.
