A composition for enhancing perception of oral umami and uses thereof

PendingCN122350304AMouth careArginine
This invention discloses a composition for enhancing oral umami perception and its application, belonging to the fields of food science and oral care technology. This composition amplifies umami signals in food by modulating the oral microenvironment of the user, mimicking the salivary biochemical characteristics of individuals with high umami sensitivity (UTS). The composition contains at least one active ingredient, preferably including: a) an umami perception enhancer, represented by valine, valine, cysteine, arginine, or glycine; and optionally including: b) a taste desensitization inhibitor, such as food-grade nitrates or cyclodextrins; c) an ionic environment modifier, such as calcium chloride or potassium phosphate; and d) a rheological property modifier, such as xanthan gum. This invention provides a novel umami enhancement technology pathway that, by improving taste perception efficiency rather than increasing additive dosage, maintains food flavor while possessing significant public health value.

Premature infant pacifier

ActiveUS12582579B2TeatsBaby-comfortersCardiac sphincterIn utero
The apparatus and process described, allows the premature infant to continue the enjoyable in utero experience of sucking and swallowing that is halted upon birth. In particular the infant is afforded the opportunity to practice tasting, sucking, and swallowing on an individualized basis. This oral enjoyment and practice allow for positive association with feedings and provides a sensory-motor experience that may lead to earlier suck, swallow, breathe (SSB) synchrony. The process engages the esophagus and cardiac sphincter to function while the infant is still being fed through the feeding rube. Ultimately, the apparatus and process may also result in earlier weaning from feeding tubes, the reduction of feeding difficulties, and earlier discharge home.

A flavor compound and its preparation method and application

The present invention belongs to the field of food processing technology and relates to a flavor compound, a preparation method and an application thereof. Hydroxyacetic acid glutamate is generated by the reaction of glycolic acid and sodium glutamate. Hydroxyacetic acid glutamate has a stronger taste stimulation and can provide a stronger salty taste at a low concentration, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing salt usage. Hydroxyacetic acid glutamate is then combined with salt, starch, and edible fungus polypeptides to obtain a new low-salt salt substitute product. The development of this low-salt salt substitute product reflects the innovative ability of modern food technology in meeting the dual needs of health and deliciousness, can effectively reduce the sodium content in food, and promote public health.
