E3S WORKING GROUP PDO SEMINAR, BERN
12 September 2012
Agroscope Research Center ALP, Liebefeld-Posieux, Liebefeld-Bern
REGISTRATION DEADLINE 10th AUGUST
The interest for sensory analysis of Protected Designation of Origin products is on the increase across Europe. The application of sensory methodologies to such products nevertheless presents specific problems, some of them not totally resolved.
The seminar presents some important issues about sensory analysis of PDOs such as sensory methods, the attitude of producers towards this analysis and the interest of consumers for sensory features. The lectures give an introduction to the topics and the final round table session will be the first opportunity to discuss such matter at European level.
The seminar is open to every member of E3S (i.e. members of the national sensory associations who belongs to European Sensory Science Society), as well as for non members.
The seminar is organized by the PDO Working Group of the European Sensory Science Society.
