OTHER SWEETENERS. “The perceived sweetness of low concentrations of caloric D-glucose (Fig. 2b), sucrose (Fig. 2c), and an artificial sweetener cyclamate (Fig. 2d) was tested when dissolved in H2O or in D2O, in order to check whether the slight sweetness of D2O adds on top of slight sweetness of known sweeteners. As expected, D-glucose was perceived as less sweet compared to sucrose at the same concentration (Fig. 2b and c). D2O added to the perceived sweetness of all tested concentrations of D-glucose and cyclamate (see Figure S4 in the SI for cyclamate results excluding two outliers).”
