摘要
Evidence suggesting that lipophilicity is an important parameter in inducing a bitter taste is collated. The implications of this association are discussed and lipophilic effects used to explain some phenomena connected with the bitterness response. Consideration of lipophilicity offers a rationale for the observed bitterness of many sweeteners at high concentration and for the influence of hydrogen-bonding on bitterness. © 1979 Information Retrieval Limited.
