Journal of Texture Studies is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that focuses on the texture and rheology of food and other consumer products. The journal covers a wide range of topics related to the physical properties of foods and how these properties affect sensory perception, consumer preference, processing, and storage. It publishes original research articles, reviews, and short communications on the measurement, interpretation, and understanding of texture and its relationship to food and product quality.

Scope and Topics

The Journal of Texture Studies aims to bridge the gap between the fundamental understanding of texture and its application in the food and consumer product industries. The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

• Measurement and analysis of food texture
• Relationships between the mechanical properties of foods and their perceived texture
• The role of texture in food processing and product development
• Sensory evaluation of texture
• Mathematical modeling and simulation of textural properties
• Influence of ingredients and processing on texture
• Texture of novel foods and ingredients

Editorial Board

The journal is overseen by an international editorial board consisting of experts in food science, rheology, sensory science, and related disciplines. The board is responsible for maintaining the journal's high standards of scientific quality and integrity.
