Experience Informs Consummatory Choices for Congruent and Incongruent Odor-Taste Mixtures in Rats.

abstract：:The extent of the change in salivary protein characteristics after repeated stimulations was shown to be correlated to differences in perceived astringency. Salivary characteristics of 77 subjects were compared after masticatory (S1) and taste/masticatory (S2) stimulations. The variations (S2 minus S1) of protein conc...
