Três produtos comerciais de alimento com soja sabor laranja (A, B e C), acondicionados em embalagem longa vida, adquiridos no mercado foram avaliados sensorialmente. A Análise Descritiva Quantitativa (ADQ) foi utilizada para traçar os perfis sensoriais, avaliando-se doze atributos levantados por 10 julgadores selecionados e treinados. A aceitação dos produtos foi avaliada por 30 potenciais consumidores mediante Teste Afetivo, realizado em laboratório, utilizando-se escala hedônica estruturada mista de 9 pontos. Os resultados da ADQ foram submetidos à Análise de Variância (ANOVA), Teste de Média de Tukey e Análise de Componentes Principais, já os resultados do Teste Afetivo (Aceitação) foram analisados pela ANOVA e pelo Teste de Média de Tukey. Os produtos A e B ficaram mais próximos entre si, o produto C diferiu do produto B (significativamente ao nível de 5%) em todos os atributos, com exceção da doçura e amargor. Os produtos A e C diferiram em todos os atributos, com exceção do residual de edulcorante e viscosidade. No teste afetivo, o produto A obteve as maiores médias e notas dos julgadores, não diferindo do produto B em nenhum dos atributos analisados. SENSORY PROFILE EVALUATION OF SOY FOOD PRODUCT WITH ORANGE FLAVOR Abstract Three commercial soy food products with orange flavor (A, B and C) conditioned in long life packing acquired in the market were sensory evaluated. Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA) was used to trace the sensorial profiles evaluating 12 attributes raised through 10 selected and trained panelists. The acceptance of these products was evaluated by 30 potential consumers in a consumer test carried out in laboratory by utilizing mixed hedonic category of 9 points. The results of QDA was submitted to the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Tukey test of averages and Principal Components Analysis, although the results of the consumer test were analyzed by ANOVA and by the Tukey test of averages. The products A and B varied between each other and product C differs from product B significantly at 5% level in all attributes with the exception of sweetness and bitterness taste. The products A and C differed in all attributes with the exception to the artificial sweetener aftertaste and viscosity. In the Consumer test the product A received the greater average scores of the panelists presenting no difference from product B in none of the analyzed attributes.

There is vast experience in the application of sensory analysis to green Spanish-style olives, but ripe black olives (≈1 × 106 kg for 2016/2017) have received scarce attention and panelists have less experience on the evaluation of this presentation. Therefore, the study of their performance during the assessment of this presentation is critical. Using previously developed lexicon, ripe olives from Manzanilla and Hojiblanca cultivars from different origins were sensory analysed according to the Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA). The panel (eight men and six women) was trained, and the QDA tests were performed following similar recommendations than for green olives. The data were examined while using SensoMineR v.1.07, programmed in R, which provides a diversity of easy to interpret graphical outputs. The repeatability and reproducibility of panel and panelists were good for product characterisation. However, the panel performance investigation was essential in detecting details of panel work (detection of panelists with low discriminant power, those that have interpreted the scale in a different way than the whole panel, the identification of panelists who required training in several/specific descriptors, or those with low discriminant power). Besides, the study identified the descriptors of hard evaluation (skin green, vinegar, bitterness, or natural fruity/floral).

The goal of this study was to evaluate the sensory profile of eleven peach cultivars grown in an experimental orchard located in the city of Lapa (PR, Brazil) in two seasons. The peach cultivars analyzed were Aurora I, Chimarrita, Chiripá, Coral, Eldorado, Granada, Leonense, Maciel, Marli, Premier, and Vanguarda. The sensory analysis was performed by previously trained panelists; 20 of them in the first season and 10 in the second season. The sensory evaluation was performed using Quantitative Descriptive Analysis, in which the following attributes were measured: appearance, aroma, flesh color, flesh firmness, flavor, and juiciness. The results showed preference for sweet, soft, and juicy fruits. Chimarrita, Chiripá, and Coral fruits showed better sensorial performance than the other peach cultivars. It was also verified that the analysis of the attributes aroma, flesh firmness, and flavor is enough for performing the sensory profile of peach fruits for in natura consumption.

Data taken from the blood of 262 patients diagnosed for malabsorption, elective cholecystectomy, acute cholecystitis, infectious hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, or chronic renal disease were analyzed with three numerical taxonomy (NT) methods : cluster analysis, principal components analysis, and discriminant function analysis. Principal components analysis revealed discrete clusters of patients suffering from chronic renal disease, liver cirrhosis, and infectious hepatitis, which could be displayed by NT clustering as well as by plotting, but other disease groups were poorly defined. Sharper resolution of the same disease groups was attained by discriminant function analysis.
