• Number of different products to be evaluated • How much test protocol development will be needed • Number of product attributes to be tested • Sensory modalities that may include flavor, texture, tactile measures using SkinSensory™,”in the mouth” tests of toothbrushes, or other product dimensions • Complexity of product and test execution • Number of panelists involved • Number of replicates each sample will be tested • Physical factors which may affect the testing, such as strong tastes or protocols that may require up to 24 hours to normalize senses necessitating long ‘rest’ times between testing • Your budget Once the objective of the test is defined in consultation with the client, and the necessary products are received in our lab, the assigned project leader screens the samples, with the assistance of several additional panelists.
