Sweetness thresholds and preferences of individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome
1999
Prince, M.E. | Hoffman, C.J.
Sweetness thresholds/preferences of individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), as compared to controls, were evaluated in a single-blind taste test to see if sweet samples were preferred, if each subject could detect each sweetener, and what the threshold level was. There were 15 subjects with similar body mass index (BMI) and age divided into two experimental groups: PWS (n = 9) and controls (n = 6). A paired comparison test was used for the threshold test for sucrose, fructose, and aspartame. A triangle test was conducted with applesauce. The control subjects could taste sweetness more readily than subjects with PWS.
