Emotional and Physical Analysis Laboratory

About Us

Our Sensory and Physical Analysis Laboratory is structured to provide quality and performance evaluation of food products in line with consumer expectations. The laboratory aims to provide scientific contribution to R&D activities, product development studies and quality control processes by offering multi-dimensional analysis opportunities from textural properties to color analysis, viscosity measurements to sensory evaluation.

Fields of Activity

In our laboratory, the physical properties and sensory qualities of food products are analyzed with modern devices, bridging the gap between consumer perception of products and scientific data. Within the scope of physical analyses, quality indicators such as color, texture, fluidity and rheological behavior are measured in detail; data based on panelist evaluations are obtained with sensory analysis infrastructure.
