Flavour and food matrix interactions - Impact of food product architecture and cross-modal interactions on flavour release & perception
15 important questions on Flavour and food matrix interactions - Impact of food product architecture and cross-modal interactions on flavour release & perception
Flavour release from a lipid matrix in the headspace is affected by:
- Fat content
- Fat type
- Fat state (liquid/solid)
Lowering the fat content of a hydrophobic compound, results in a ... Release of volatile aroma compounds.
A lower fat content causes a ... Release kinetics.

For my 1st exam I got a C. Then, I started looking for ways to learn better and I came across Study Smart. Since then I have scored a A+, A, A- and another A. I highly recommend it to everyone who wants to hear it. I am so happy with it!!
I was struggling to finish all my first-year subjects for 3 years. Then I discovered Study Smart, which helped me to finish all of them within 3 months.
Because of StudySmart, things are going well in many ways. Before, I always had study stress and no time for anything. Now I feel calm and confident (because of the program). I used to score a B, now I usually score an A or A+.
Hey Chris, I really want to thank you very much for developing the platform, I usually got around C for my exams, now I scored an A+, an A and a A- !!
Since using Study Smart, my average has increased significantly. I even completed a statistics course with a A+ while I'm bad at statistics. I took on extra courses this year, because of Study Smart. Thanks so much!
Ever since I started studying with StudySmart I passed all my exams !!! No more re-sits!! At first, I was happy with a pass and now I only get good grades. Many thanks!
I aced all the courses I studied with Study Smart. For law, I first scored a D, and now an A! I’m 100% sure that I’ll pass all the courses I study with Study Smart.
I always thought I studied well. My grades were fine. I could never have imagined that applying these study skills would have such a huge and direct impact on my grades, my speed and the pleasure I have in learning.
For the first time, I finally feel totally confident about the way I learn. I have the perfect overview and make great progress in terms of speed and the grades I get. Thanks, Chris!
I immediately started to enjoy learning again, and my grades soared. All of a sudden, everything went better. I highly recommend Study Smart to all students..
Being able to create my materials online made the process of studying so much smoother and quicker. I no longer have to spend a huge amount of my time on creating my summaries.
At first, my notes were a mess. Now I use Study Smart to take my notes in a perfectly structured way. It helps me to save a lot of time and do other things I enjoy.
Students that study with Study Smart get better grades. The system applies all the learning methods in such a way that both well-performing students and students who struggle perform much better.
Hi Chris, I would like to thank you very much. Last year I scored C on a course, and this year I got an A+ thanks to your method! Thank you very much!
The largest effect is that my child is more enthusiastic about school! Every parent wants their children to be happy at school, Study Smart made it happen.
In high school, I failed several exams, and that has really changed now. I actually needed this tool very much back then. Since I started studying with StudySmart, I haven't had any D's. My average score is now an A and those are results I would have never had in the past
With my old method, I passed only 3 out of 8 courses. Since I started taking my notes digitally in Study Smart, I have passed all my courses on the first try. For me, StudySmart takes away the stress of wondering if I will pass or not.
Thanks to StudySmart, I passed all my exams, and with better grades than before! On top of that, I have mastered a very good study method now, which I am confident will help me earn my degree.
How are viscosity and volatile release related?
The effect of viscosity on the release of volatile aroma compounds in liquid foods can be explained by two mechanisms:
- Upon addition of a thickener, physical/chemical interactions could occur between the thickener and volatile aroma compound. These interactions result in a decrease in the release of the volatile.
- The mass transfer of the volatile from the liquid food into the gas phase is modified (reduced) for an increase in viscosity.
Has viscosity a large effect on taste and smell?
Mention 3 possible reasons why taste intensity is more sensitive to changes in viscosity than smell?
- Effect on mass transfer of the volatile aroma compound between the surface of the liquid food and taste buds upon increased viscosity
- Surface regeneration effects and mixing effects in the mouth
- Decreased contact surface area between the liquid food and the mouth due to an increased viscosity of the food. The liquid food spreads less on the tongue, resulting in a decreased amount of taste buds being stimulated by the taste compounds in the solution (consisting of the food and saliva).

How is hardness of food related to the physical release of the volatile aroma compound and to the perceived odour intensity?
- Physical release of the volatile aroma compound --> not affected
- Perceived odour intensity --> increased hardness resulted in a reduced perception of odour intensity
Which food related properties play a role in the release of flavour?
- Viscosity
- Hardness
- Chewing pattern
- Brittleness
How are brittleness and release of tastants related?
The concentration of the flavour compound in the nasal cavity will not necessarily be the determining factor for flavour perception. T/F
What is the fracture strain?
How does sweetness depend on fracture strain?
How are the number of chews related to sweetness? And why?
More chews --> smaller bolus particles --> larger total surface area of all bolus fragments --> high sugar flux/release from bolus to saliva/taste buds --> high sweetness
