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?
  • (2) These results suggest that the gustatory contribution to the flavor denoted by the Japanese word "umami" may be mediated, in part, by neurons that also respond to chemical described by humans as sweet.
  • (3) Data suggest that umami taste perception plays an important role in protein metabolism, and in maintenance of AA and ammonia homeostasis within normal limits.
  • (4) He decided to call the fifth taste 'umami' - a common Japanese word that is usually translated as 'savoury' - or, with more magic, as 'deliciousness'.
  • (5) The data demonstrate that, though the taste of the common umami substances such as MSG and IMP is mainly caused by their anions, the effects of their cations, such as Na, should not be ignored.

  • (7) The umami compounds elicited moderate responses which were largest in the sweet fibers.
  • (8) When you next grate parmesan cheese onto some dull spaghetti, what you will have done in essence is add a shed-load of glutamate to stimulate your tongue's umami receptors, thus sending a message to the brain which signals (as one neuro-researcher puts it) 'Joy and happiness!'
  • (9) Anchovy and broccoli pasta This quick and easy recipe is gloriously flavourful – don't be put off if you're not a fan of anchovies; they dissolve, leaving a gorgeous umami taste.

  • (11) Taken together these data indicate that the umami taste of MSG exerts an enhancing and specific action on metabolism that obeys the rules of anticipatory reflexes in the sense that both the metabolic rate and substrate utilization adapt from the very first announcement of ingestion of an extra load of protein.
  • (12) 'This study,' concluded Professor Ikeda in triumph, 'has discovered two facts: one is that the broth of seaweed contains glutamate and the other that glutamate causes the taste sensation "umami".'
  • (13) The effects of cations approach the taste thresholds of umami substances.
  • (14) Studies in the taste system of mammals indicate that monosodium glutamate (MSG) produces a unique taste sensation termed umami.
