The present study explores sweet stimuli effects on hunger and negative alliesthesia in patients treated with antipsychotic drugs and controls. Those phenomena were examined in relation to previous weight gain, eating and weight-related cognitions and type of sweet stimuli: aspartame or sucrose. Alliesthesia is delayed in participants who gained weight regardless of cross group differences. A similar reduction of hunger was observed after the intake of two kinds of sweet stimuli (aspartame or sucrose) whereas alliesthesia measures were not affected. Whereas atypical antipsychotic drug-induced weight gain is linked to delayed satiety, the phenomenon is similar in magnitude in non-psychiatric controls who gained weight.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study examines how various sweet substances, including steviol glycosides and artificial sweeteners, interact with different binding sites on the sweet taste receptor using experimental and computational methods.
  • * Results show that steviol glycosides can change the receptor's affinity by binding to specific intracellular regions, enhancing our understanding of the receptor's structure and function.

This paper presents the development of an intelligent sensing platform dedicated to accurately identifying terahertz (THz) spectra obtained from various biochemical substances. The platform currently has two distinct identification modes, which focus on identifying five amino acids, namely phenylalanine, methionine, lysine, leucine, and threonine, and five carbohydrates, namely aspartame, fructose, glucose, lactose monohydrate, and sucrose based on their THz spectra. The first mode, called One-dimensional THz Spectrum Identification (OTSI), combines THz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) with the proposed mini convolutional neural network (MCNN) model.

The present study investigated the sweetness interaction and the sensory characteristics of a novel glycosylated rebaudioside A (g-reb_A) when mixed with other sweeteners. Binary sweetener mixtures were formulated by mixing g-reb_A with four types of sweeteners (sucrose, aspartame, acesulfame-K, saccharin). The sweetness potencies of sweeteners were measured at various concentrations.

Introduction: Aspartame, invented in 1965 by GD-Searle, is an intense artificial sweetener taste approximately 200 times as sweet as sucrose and used as an additive in more than 6,000 products. Aspartame (APM) was submitted for pre-marketing safety evaluation in early 1980. The studies, performed by GD-Searle, produced controversial results.

Substituting sugar with noncaloric sweeteners prevents overweight and diabetes development. They come in two types: artificial, like aspartame and sucralose, and natural, such as sorbitol. This research aimed to assess the effects of sucrose and these sweeteners on nutritional parameters, hematological parameters, hormones, and anti- and pro-inflammatory cytokines in male rats.
