Mastication is one of the neurophysiological based complex processes, which involves the activities of masseter muscles. During mastication there is secretion of saliva which helps in the formation of bolus for swallowing. Texture was explained as a result of various structural and mechanical properties of food which are detected with the help of various senses. During the sensory analysis, texture perception is one of the important parameter. Thus there is a need of a novel technique for measuring mastication during chewing of various food products in in vivo conditions.
