逐語: "In the first experiment, a significant proportion of subjects chose the non-treated side assigned significantly higher ratings that sucrose-induced sweetness, quinine-induced bitterness and glutamate-induced umami sensations... A 15 min break was imposed in order to allow the capsaicin burn to disappear and desensitization to set in, followed by bilateral application of test solutions. There were no differences in taste intensity of any of the tastants."
逐語: "In Experiment 2, perceptual similarity/dissimilarity of stimuli was directly measured using pairs of stimuli applied to opposite sides of the tongue tip separated by 2 cm. Multidimensional scaling analyses showed capsaicin fell nearer to QSO4 than any other stimulus. Cluster analysis corroborated this finding: capsaicin was linked with QSO4 and separated from the other stimuli... these findings imply that despite being mediated by different sensory modalities, bitterness and burn are qualitatively similar."

"sweet and bitter tastes mitigate oral burning caused by capsaicin, piperine, and other pungent substances [134]. Bitter substances can reduce the irritation associated with pungent ingredients on the tongue and mouth and have the least effect on the perception of capsaicin compared to substances associated with other tastes."
