*具及名望的學(xué)術(shù)雜志《自然》（英語 ：Nature）也是世界上早的科學(xué)期刊登載了味覺傳感器（TS-5000Z味覺分析系統(tǒng)的核心技術(shù)）的內(nèi)容，也對INSENT公司及其研發(fā)團(tuán)隊做了相關(guān)介紹。

摘要內(nèi)容：

      Toko has developed an e-tongue that consists of a series of polymer membranes, each coated with a different lipid, fitted onto a plastic tube and connected to an electrode. When the tube is immersed in a sample liquid, the taste molecules in the liquid interact with the lipids and change the electrical potential of the membranes in a characteristic way. The result is a readout that corresponds to taste.
