Smell of alcohol when opening a package of sliced bread? Discover why with this e-nose comparison study of four brands of pre-packaged bread and a bakery product!
Sensory analysis is an efficient tool to compare competitors’ products to the target leaders’ one in the market, to develop a new product or to improve a current one. In this study, 4 brands of chocolate hazelnut spreads were characterized to compare their aroma profiles in order timprove, re-formulate or re-engineer products.
In this study an objective and neutral olfactive evaluation through an electronic nose has been performed on recycled PET samples. The differences respect to a reference have been clearly identified, allowing to improve the recycling processes and accelerate product development.
