9、dardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right

10、 to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International St

11、andards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an In

12、ternational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.

14、dology Method of investigating sensitivity of taste1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a set of objective tests for familiarizing assessors with sensory analysis. The test methods specified can be useful to:a) teach assessors to recognize tastes and to distinguish between them (see Clause 8

15、);b) teach assessors to know and to familiarize themselves with different types of threshold tests (see Clause 9);c) make assessors aware of their own sensitivity of taste;d) enable test supervisors to carry out a preliminary categorization of assessors.The methods can also be used as a periodic mon

16、itor of the sensitivity of taste of assessors who are already members of sensory analysis panels.2 Normative referencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

22、form of aqueous solutions of given concentration are presented to each assessor. After each tasting, the taste is identified by the assessors and their assessments recorded.4.2 Familiarization with the different types of thresholdFor each taste, the appropriate reference substance is presented to ea

23、ch assessor, in the form of a series of dilutions of increasing concentration. After each tasting, the results are recorded by the assessors.5 ReagentsWARNING Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This International Standard does not purport to

24、 address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.5.1 Water, neutral, tasteless, still and odourless, preferably of known har

25、dness.For recognition of metallic sensation, demineralized water shall be used to avoid oxidation and to get a metallic sensation. In demineralized water and water with a low hardness (spring water), a bitter and sour taste shows lower recognition thresholds.The water provided to the assessors for r

26、insing their mouths shall be identical with that used to prepare the dilutions (5.3).5.2 Stock solutions.Prepare, in volumetric flasks (6.1), the solutions listed in Table 1 from food-grade reference substances.5.3 Dilutions.From the stock solutions specified in Table 1, prepare a series of solution

27、s for each taste in accordance with Table 2.6 Apparatus6.1 One-mark volumetric flasks, ISO 10423, clean, dry and of suitable capacity for preparing the stock solutions.2 ISO 2012BS ISO 3972:2011 ISO 3972:2011 (E)6.2 Burettes, ISO 3851, preferably having automatic zeroing, for preparing the dilutions

31、c Caffeine should be dissolved in hot (80 C) water.d Sucrose solution is unstable, should be used within 24 h and should be stored chilled until use.e Perception can be modified by the condition of the teeth since certain dental prostheses produce an electrolytic effect.f Iron has to be dissolved on

32、ly in demineralized water for recognition and to avoid oxidation and colouring. Colouration of the solution is a sign of oxidation. Coloured iron solution shall therefore not be used for investigation sensitivity of taste.Table 2 Preparation of the solutions for each tasteDilutionAcid Bitter Salty S

36、 Test roomThe tests shall be conducted in a room which complies with the requirements specified in ISO 8589.7.2 General rulesApply the general guidelines given in ISO 6658 for the execution of these tests. It is particularly important that:a) the assessors taste each without haste (about 30 s interv

37、als);b) the assessors take a sufficient amount of solution to allow exposure to the whole mouth (about 15 ml);c) the assessors rinse the mouth with water (5.1) after evaluating each taste series;d) the samples and water have the same temperature (usually ambient temperature, around 20 C) and that th

38、ey remain at this temperature throughout the tests.8 Identification of tastes8.1 Test solutionsFor each taste, the threshold for the basic tastes and iron sensation shall correspond to a mixture of equal parts of dilutions as mentioned in Table 3.For a trained panel, the recognition of the basic tas

39、tes and metallic sensation shall be at the concentrations listed in Table 3.Table 3 Test solutions for the identification of tastesReference substance Concentrationg/lDilution(see Table 2)aCitric acidCaffeineSodium chlorideSucroseMonosodium glutamateIron(II) sulfate heptahydrate0,280,1951,195,760,29

41、e materials (between 9 and 12), repeating certain dilutions and also including one or two vessels containing water. (A sample series could thus comprise, for example, two acid, one water, two salty, two bitter, one water, two umami, two metallic, one sweet.)Prepare as many sample series as there are

42、 assessors.Identify all samples with a random unique three-digit code known only to the test supervisor.Provide each assessor with a jug or bottle of water for rinsing out the mouth. This water shall be identical with that used for the preparation of the dilutions.4 ISO 2012BS ISO 3972:2011 ISO 3972

43、:2011 (E)8.2 DeterminationPresent the vessels containing the test solutions prepared in 8.1 to each of the assessors, and instruct them to proceed as follows.The assessors sample the contents of each vessel, taking a mouthful (about 15 ml) of each, keeping to the order of presentation and without go

44、ing back to previously sampled vessels.After each tasting, the assessors shall enter their assessments on an answer form (see Annex A) or, where applicable, register them using a computerized system.9 Familiarization with the different types of threshold tests9.1 Test solutionsFor each taste, use di

45、lutions D1 to D8 prepared in accordance with Table 2 and divide them among the vessels (6.3).Introduce randomly within each sample series up to three additional vessels containing dilutions of the same concentration as the preceding vessel; this is to eliminate responses given by deduction.The vesse

46、ls shall be coded by means of a random three-digit number.Provide each assessor with a glass and a jug or bottle of water for rinsing the mouth. This water shall be identical to that used for the preparation of the dilutions.9.2 DeterminationIt is recommended that at most three tastes be assessed du

47、ring any one session, in order to avoid sensory fatigue. Meanwhile, it is necessary to repeat the assessment of the tastes during the group sessions.Carry out the test one substance at a time as follows.Present an identified vessel containing water to each assessor advising them to rinse the palate

48、between each sample.Introduce the samples by order of increasing concentration.Do not present all the vessels to the assessors at the same time, as they might be tempted to start with the highest concentration in order to identify easily the taste being tested.Instruct the assessors to sample the co

49、ntents of each vessel in turn, taking a mouthful or about 15 ml of each.Immediately after each tasting, the assessors shall enter on the answer form (see Annex B) the absence of sensation or the taste sensations produced, using the following system of notation:0 No perceived impression? Perceived impression but not identified Perceived taste, , , etc. Identified difference in concentrationInstruct the assessors to add an extra cross each time an increase in concentration is identified, and to write dow
