Journal of Texture Studies (JTS)

The Journal of Texture Studies is a leading scientific journal dedicated to the study of texture and sensory perception in foods and other consumer products, first published in 1969. It is published bi‑monthly by Wiley‑Blackwell and has established itself as an authoritative source for research on the physical and sensory dimensions of texture, which play a crucial role in product quality and consumer experience. The journal’s scope encompasses the physics and mechanics of food structure, oral processing behavior, mouth‑feel sensations, and the psychological factors that influence how texture is perceived. Interdisciplinary in nature, it draws contributions from food scientists, engineers, sensory scientists, psychologists, and nutrition researchers, encouraging innovative experimental and analytical approaches. Researchers publish empirical and theoretical work that sheds light on texture design, measurement methodologies, and texture‑sensory relationships. Topics include instrumental texture analysis, in‑vitro and in‑vivo studies of oral processing, texture modification for special populations (e.g., elderly or dysphagic), and simulation or modelling of texture perception. By bridging physical measurements with sensory evaluation, the journal advances fundamental understanding and practical applications in food product development, quality control, and sensory sciences. Its rigorous peer review and consistent publication frequency support timely advances in texture research that inform both academia and industry.
