“…In the same area, Butler, Postle, Mackie, and Jones (1996), suggested that results based on parameters summarizing TI curves were comparable, if not superior, to those obtained using time-averaged, single point assessments. They also concluded that the type of TI curve described by Liu and MacFie (1990), had reaction, ascending, stationary and descending phases which may not comply with the type of TI curve obtained in the assessment of texture.…”
