Food irradiation has been in the news lately, and this news strongly favors the consideration of food irradiation as a practical, economical method for improving food safety and shelf life. This new edition of a popular guidebook provides an updated, detailed, readable survey of…
This is a manageable compilation of the key knowledge of applications of radiations in food processing, sufficiently introductory to a neophyte and simultaneously adequate to serve as a rather short directional guide for the specialist. The electromagnetic spectrum is introduced…
Food irradiation: principles and applications
Food irradiation: principles and applications
This text provides a comprehensive view of food irradiation around the world, its principles, effects, applications and limitations. It includes and focuses on the science and technology rather than the controversies surrounding the topic.
In 1997 the FDA approved the use of low-dose ionizing radiation to eliminate pathogens in red meat. This food processing technology can improve the safety of food and extend the shelf life of certain foods by eliminating pathogenic bacteria, parasites, and other microorganisms t…
