ResumoSweetness intensity ratings were made by a trained panel for a range of concentrations of nineteen sweeteners. Panelists were trained to make sweetness ratings relative to six sucrose standards (2%-16%). The shapes of the concentration-response plots were sweetener-dependent. Sugars and sugar alcohols yielded linear concentration-response relationships for intensities up to that of a 16% sucrose standard. Highpotency sweeteners including aspartame, acesulfame-K and alitame yielded hyperbolic concentration-response plots.
