Since 1975, the Sensory Analysis Laboratory has provided sensory evaluation services to both industry and university researchers, and been involved in various types of research projects of food products.

Located in Babcock Hall on the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the Sensory Analysis Laboratory takes pride in having at its disposal:

  • A diverse pool of panelists readily available for participation in sensory panels.
  • Consumer preference evaluations conducted at the Dairy Products Salesroom, UW-Madison.
  • Proximity to the Food Science Department allows sensory analysis data to be integrated with the problem-solving facilities of a gas and high-performance liquid chromatography laboratory. Integration of these services to form mini-research projects is available.
