摘要

Taste sensitivity to 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) is genetically determined. Nontasters are taste blind to PROP. Tasters are more sensitive than nontasters to many tastes, and show lower acceptance of foods with these predominant tastes. Therefore, PROP sensitivity could serve as a marker for food preferences that associate with diet. There is a need for development of brief and valid methods for PROP taster classification that are applicable to large-scale studies. The purpose of this work is to develop such methods and to apply them to problems in basic and applied research.; First, a paper method was developed. Two groups of adult subjects classified using the standard test and the paper method. Subject classifications were highly related, suggesting that the paper method is a valid test for PROP taster classification.; In the 2nd and 3rd objectives, the paper method was modified to classify children and applied to a study that investigated how PROP sensitivity, gender, and food adventurousness (FA) influenced food preferences of adolescents. Adolescents were classified using the paper method and the one-solution method, and the results were highly correlated. Subjects tasted several foods and completed a food checklist. PROP status and FA predicted liking of dark-chocolate and grapefruit-orange-juice. Tasters liked fewer foods on the food checklist and taster-girls disliked more bitter foods. Food-adventurous-children liked more individual foods as well. These data suggest PROP sensitivity interacts with the other factors to influence food preferences of adolescents.; In the 4th objective, the paper method was applied to a study that examined consumer reactions to beverages sweetened by high-intensity-sweeteners. Panelists were screened for PROP sensitivity using the paper test. Supertasters were more sensitive to all the attributes and liked the attributes less across all the sweeteners. Principal Component analysis revealed that the most important underlying dimension of sweetener perception was sweet attributes for nontasters, and bitter attributes for supertasters. This, study has demonstrated PROP sensitivity affects perception and acceptance of beverages sweetened by high-intensity-sweeteners.; The present work has demonstrated that the paper method is a reliable screening tool for assessing sensitivity to PROP that has numerous applications in basic and applied research.
