Research interests
Professor Keast's research is primarily concerned with the sense of taste and it's role with food choice.
Using sensory evaluation techniques combined with nutritional assessment, the majority of Professor Keast's published research has focused on understanding the taste system, in particular how knowledge of taste may be associated with dietary consumption and development of diet-related disease. For example, recent research has involved 1/ the role of caffeine in sugar sweetened beverages, 2/ the link between salt taste and consumption of salty foods, 3/ the existence of a sixth basic taste responsive to fat, and the role it may play in development of obesity. In addition, Professor Keast has been actively involved in developing a link between chemical analysis and perceived flavour. Using a sensory directed approach to the chemical separation of foods, he co-discovered a natural non-steroidal anti-inflammatory compound in virgin olive oil.
Professor Keast has ongoing industry collaborations and consultancies involving sensory evaluation of foods.
