NF ISO 11035
Sensory analysis. Identification and selection of descriptors for establishing a sensory profile by a multidimensional approach.
Describes a method for identifying and selecting descriptors which can then be used for drawing up the sensory profile of a product. Describes the different stages in the process for setting up test through which a complete description of the sensory attributes of a product can be obtained: from a qualitative point of view by defining by means of descriptors all the perceptions for distinguishing one product from others of the same type; from a quantitative point of view, by evaluating the intensity of each descriptor. This method can be used to define a production standard; to improve or develop products; to study the influence of the ageing of products and also of the conditions of storage and preservation; to compare a product with those of the same type already on the market.

Des entreprises de plus en plus nombreuses sont amenées à utiliser l'analyse sensorielle afin de mieux connaître les produits qu'elles fabriquent ou qu'elles achètent, intégrant cette technique dans la filière "qualité". Dans ce cas, le jury d'analyse sensorielle constitue un réel "appareil d'analyse" et ses membres doivent être recrutés et sélectionnés avec soin. La présente norme fournit une méthodologie permettant de rechercher, à l'aide d'un jury, les descripteurs qui seront les plus aptes à désigner les propriétés sensorielles d'un produit soumis à l'analyse dans le but d'élaborer ensuite son profil sensoriel.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
