説明

Electromyographic (EMG) measurements were made of the masseter muscles of healthy adults while masticating 7g of cucumber to identify the type and degree of mastication required when eating different cultivars and thicknesses. One cultivar required a longer mastication time and higher EMG activity than other three cultivars. In all the cucumber cultivars tested, a pile of thinly sliced samples (ca. 1mm) required more mastication than a 10mm slice, as indicated by a greater number of chewing strokes, longer mastication time, and higher EMG activity per chewing stroke. Higher amplitude and later peak position per chewing stroke were observed for the thinly sliced cucumber during the first five chews; however, these differences diminished during the later stages of mastication. These facts suggest that thinly sliced cucumber requires more effort than a 10-mm slice for mastication of the same weight.
