摘要:
We have discovered a method to enhance sweetness comprising the use of a sweetener at a sub-to near- threshold concentration which is used in combination with a suprathreshold concentration of another sweetener. The sweetener used at the near-threshold concentration is selected based on its likely binding site in the human sweet taste receptor. The invention relates to the identification of agents that can modulate the taste response in humans (such as sweet taste enhancers) through assays based on a novel sweet receptor protein, heterologous expression systems containing nucleic acid constructs forming said novel sweet receptor protein, and the use of the novel sweet receptor protein in screening.

摘要:
Used as cooling agents are the compounds of 1/7-isopropyl-4/5-methyl-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene derivatives of the formula (I) wherein R1 and R2 are independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, hydroxymethyl, carboxy, or C(O)NHR, wherein R is methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, or cyclopropyl; with the proviso that R1 and R2 are not both hydrogen.
摘要:
The present invention refers to cooling compounds of formula (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, X, Y, Z, and m have the same meaning as given in the specification. The present invention refers furthermore to a process for their production and to product compositions comprising them.
摘要:
Compounds of the formula (I) give a cooling sensation to the mouth and skin. In Formula I, m is 0 or 1, Y and Z are selected independently from the group consisting of H, OH, C1-C4 straight or branched alkyl, or, a C1-C4 straight or branched alkoxy, X is (CH2)n-R, where n is 0 or 1 and R is a group with non-bonding electrons, with the provisos that: (a) when Y and Z are H, X is not F, OH, MeO or NO2 in the 4-position and is not OH in the 2 or 6-position; (b) when Y or Z is H then X, Y and Z are such that (i) the groups in the 3- and 4-positions are not both OMe, (ii) the groups in the 4- and 5-positions are not both OMe, (iii) the groups in 3- and 5-positions are not OMe if the group in the 4-position is OH, and (iv) the groups in the 3- and 5-positions are not OH if the group in the 4-position is methyl. The compounds give a cooling sensation up to ten times more powerful than the best current commercial materials.
摘要:
The compounds confer substantial cooling effects on compositions applied to the skin or taken orally, such as toothpastes, mouthwashes, foodstuffs, beverages, confectionery, tobacco products, skin creams and ointments.
摘要:
Steviol glycosides have been discovered to bind the bitter taste receptor TAS2R44 alias T2R44, T2R31, T2R53. Novel methods of identifying modulators and in particular inhibitors to the bitter taste of steviol glycosides and an inhibitor of steviol glycosides, namely 4-(2, 2, 3-trimethyl-cyclopenthyl) -butanoic acid are provided.
