The electronic tongue & co.: new approach to taste testing The electronic tongue & co.: new approach to taste testing
Can an electronic technique be used to determine the flavour of a tomato quickly and objectively? In association with Flandria, the Flanders Centre of Postharvest Technology (VCBT) and the Sensor Technology Group of the university in Leuven (K.U.Leuven) are currently testing three methods. Once the best option has been identified, it will be possible to substantially increase the number of taste tests on Flandria tomatoes starting in 2008.
