The sensory specialist performs seven key roles in product development, prior to the generation of a final report on the new product:

Determine the project objective (product modification or totally new product?) by understanding the needs of the project leader in order to apply the appropriate sensory test and properly analyze the data, as well as define treatments and variables. Determine the test objective, which means deciding between difference, preference, or acceptability testing. Before starting the study, record in writing the project objective, the test objective, and a brief statement of how the test results will be obtained, analyzed, and applied. Screen the samples during the first discussion phase of the project. The sensory specialist should examine all of the sensory properties of the samples to be tested so as to determine whether any sensory biases due to nonuniform samples, such as color or thickness differences, are present. Design the test, which involves selection of the test technique, score sheet design, selection and training of panelists, the criteria for sample preparation and presentation, and the manner of data analysis. Conduct the test, with the sensory specialist being responsible for seeing that all requirements of the design are met by the sensory staff. Analyze the data using the procedure for data analysis that was determined at the test design stage. The appropriate statistical programs and expertise need to be in place to begin data analysis as soon as the test is completed. Data is often analyzed for the main treatment effect/test objective and other test variables such as order of presentation, day effects, and subject variables, including panelist age, gender, and geographical area. Interpret and report results. It is always desirable to review the results and express them in terms of the stated objectives; an initially clear statement of the project and test objectives enables the sensory specialist to accomplish this. The written sensory report should summarize the data, describe the samples, provide information regarding the panelists, identify the key test findings, and make informed recommendations.

freeze drying

Freeze-drying, or lyophilization, which first freezes the product and then evaporates off moisture by application of a vacuum, is a popular approach applicable to many foods.

For our purposes, the commercial stage refers to production scale-up from pilot plant to commercial plant, plus market testing and the subsequent introduction of the new product to a nationwide market. In this stage product development scientists interact with manufacturing and operations personnel in the actual commercial production plant. A further aspect of this stage has to do with obtaining information from the end user of a product—the consumer—through market testing and market research.

How much operating time must be devoted to new product manufacture at the manufacturing plant? How much cost is involved in large commercial batch production runs? Are there any concerns regarding the bulk storage of raw materials in the commercial plant? Does the product have to be returned to the pilot plant for retesting for any reason, or is it ready to be test-marketed? What, if any, image should the new product project? Where will the product be test-marketed? How will consumer attention be directed toward the new product? Is the institutional market (schools, hospitals, restaurants, etc.) a potential user of this product?

The development stage refers to the work involved in creating the design and nature of the product, from a compositional standpoint as well as a processing, packaging, and marketing one. The majority of the activities undertaken in product development occur at this stage. One of the first accomplishments of the development stage is to formulate a bench-top prototype product. This prototype is usually made in the laboratory as a small-scale (a few pounds in weight) batch that can be easily and reproducibly formulated for repeated testing without too much expense.

Is the formulation reproducible, or are changes needed? How will quality and cost be affected by altering ingredients and processingconditions? What are the storage requirements of the product and its shelf life? Will spoilage due to yeasts, molds, or bacteria be a problem? Does the product require any special packaging? Does sensory analysis indicate the product is meeting its concept goal? What is required to scale up for commercial production of this product?

Consumer canola oil is usually processed via ________________

Solvent extraction

Changing the equilibrium between a microorganism and its environment with respect to solute concentration can be employed to inhibit its growth. When the solute (e.g. salt or sugar) concentration is higher outside the bacterial cell, the cell dries out and dies as H2O leaves in the direction of higher solute concentration.

TRUE

Enzymatic oxidation reactions occur when food molecules GAIN oxygen, or LOSE hydrogen or electrons, in the presence of an active ENZYME. The browning of fruits and vegetables is an example of an enzymatic (PPO, polyphenol oxidase) oxidation reaction

TRUE

Examples of the encapsulated substances include: enzymes, inulin, omega-3 fatty acids.

TRUE

Food irradiation involves the use of either high-speed electrons from an electron beam ("ebeam") electron accelerator or high-energy gamma ionizing energy such as that given off by radioisotopes Co-60 (radioactive cobalt) or Cs-137 (radioactive cesium).

TRUE

Sensory tests are typically classified according to their primary purpose and most valid use.

TRUE

TRUE

The duo-trio test is a simple test to perform, and is easily understood by panelists. Each panelist receives an identified reference sample, followed by two coded samples, one of which matches the reference sample. Panelists are to indicate which coded sample matches the reference.

The duo-trio test can be used to determine whether an overall difference exists between samples where no specific attributes can be identified as having been affected. The duo-trio test presents each panelist with an identified reference sample, followed by two coded samples, one of which matches the reference sample. The panelists are asked to indicate which coded sample matches the reference.

The paired comparison test presents panelists with two products. Panelists are asked to decide which product prefer in terms of a certain quality attribute such as sweetness, sourness, or something similar.

The paired-comparison test is used to determine whether two products differ in a specified attribute, such as flavor. Two differently coded samples are presented to each panelist simultaneously, and the panelist's task is to choose the one that is perceived as higher or more intense in the specified sensory attribute. When presenting the two samples (A and B), there are two possible serving sequences: AB and BA. These sequences must be randomized across panelists with each sequence appearing an equal number of times.

describes the process by which a food ingredient is converted into a stabilized form in order to allow the ingredient to be conveniently stored or protected from unfavorable conditions in a food product.

A bacterial cell can acquire a new ________ through transduction, __________, or conjugation.

gene; transformation

activation energy

is the amount of energy needed to convert substrate molecules from the ground or baseline energy state to the ES complex.
