Umami


Definition:

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Umami taste appears to signal, at the gustatory level, the intake of proteins, therefore the working hypothesis was: does umami taste of a monosodium glutamate (MSG) solution elicit changes in both glucagon and insulin release, similar to those elicited by amino acids, and consequently, changes in plasma glucose and in overall cellular metabolism?
