## Description

This MCP server provides analytical tools to predict how chemical compounds behave within a wine matrix. By applying matrix-correction factors--accounting for alcohol content and pH levels--it calculates whether a compound is sub-threshold or supra-threshold. Use `get_compound_thresholds` to find base detection limits, `calculate_matrix_correction` to adjust for the wine's environment, `evaluate_detection_status` to determine perception probability, and `calculate_sensory_impact` to quantify the prominence of compounds like TCA, 4-EP, or Diacetyl.

## Tools

### calculate_matrix_correction
Determines how much the environment (pH and Alcohol) will shift the base sensory threshold

### calculate_sensory_impact
Quantifies the sensory prominence of a compound in the wine

### evaluate_detection_status
Determines if a compound is detectable and calculates the probability of perception

### get_compound_thresholds
Retrieves the base sensory threshold values for specific chemical compounds

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the sensory threshold for TCA?
```

**Response:** 
```
The base sensory threshold for TCA is typically measured in µg/L.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a 0.05 mg/L concentration of 4-EP detectable in a wine with 13% alcohol and pH 3.5?
```

**Response:** 
```
At a concentration of 0.05 mg/L with 13% alcohol and pH 3.5, the 4-EP is supra-threshold with a high detection probability.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the sensory impact of Diacetyl at 0.1 mg/L in a wine with 12% alcohol and pH 3.2.
```

**Response:** 
```
The sensory impact score for Diacetyl in this matrix is 0.45, which falls into the 'Trace' perceptual category.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool account for wine composition?**
The tool uses `calculate_matrix_correction` to adjust standard sensory thresholds based on the specific alcohol content and pH level of the wine sample.

**Can I check if a specific fault like TCA is detectable?**
Yes, you can use `evaluate_detection_status` with the compound name 'TCA' to determine if its concentration is supra-threshold in your specific wine matrix.

**What is the difference between sub-threshold and supra-threshold?**
Sub-threshold means the concentration is too low to be perceived given the matrix effects, while supra-threshold means the compound is likely to be detected by a taster.
