Abstract:
The objective of this idea is to set up an electronic nose (e-nose) and tongue (e-tongue) as rapid quality control and research & development tools for the pet food industry. The final goal is to integrate e-nose and e-tongue with other sensing and imaging devices to 1) ensure high pet food standards in terms of nutritional properties, palatability and acceptability; 2) set up an instrumental protocol with good correlation to animal sensory properties in order to replace animal preference test, chemical and texture analysis.
