Disease relevance of Food Irradiation

Thus, the irradiation of the pesticide malathion to 10 kGy, a recommended upper dose for most food irradiations, does not significantly alter its toxicity in these in vitro systems [1].

High impact information on Food Irradiation

ESR detection of irradiated food [2].
Detecting irradiated foods: use of hydroxyl radical biomarkers [3].
Amounts of benzene were detected in irradiated hams with PB, showing PB was not fit as an antimicrobial ingredient for irradiated foods [4].
The 2-alkylcyclobutanone method was adopted as a European Standard (EN1785) and MAFF Validated Method (MAFF V37) in 1996 for the detection of irradiated food containing fat [5].
The results of an intercomparison, organized by the Community Bureau of Reference (Commission of the European Communities), on the use of Electron Spin Resonance spectroscopy for the identification of irradiated food are presented [6].

Gene context of Food Irradiation

The ESR detection of irradiated food [7].
