Covering all aspects of sensory panel management, this volume
describes the different types of sensory panels (for example panels
for quality control, descriptive analysis and discrimination
tests), discusses the issues involved with sensory testing, and
gives detailed information about sensory panel recruitment,
training and on-going management. Sensory Panel Management gives
both theoretical and practical information from deciding what type
of panel to recruit and how to conduct panel training, to creating
the best sensory team and how to deal with any issues. Downloads of
several of the documents included in the book are available from
http://www.laurenlrogers.com/sensory-panel-management.html The book
is divided into three main sections. The first section looks at the
recruitment of sensory panels, covering the process from both a
scientific and a human resources angle. The second section deals
with the training of a sensory panel. Initial training, as well as
method and product specific training is covered. Example session
plans for running panel sessions for quality control,
discrimination tests, descriptive profiling, temporal methods and
consumer tests are included within the specific chapters. Refresher
and advanced training such as training panelists to take part in
gas chromatography-olfactometry are also included. The third
section examines the performance of sensory panels. Chapters within
this section explore performance measures and ways of preventing
(and dealing with) difficult situations relating to panellists. A
final chapter looks at the future of sensory panels. Throughout the
book there are short case study examples demonstrating the
practical application of the methods being discussed. Sensory Panel
Management is a key reference for academics, technical and sensory
staff in food companies. Lauren Rogers is an independent sensory
science consultant in the UK with more than twenty years of
