The wholesomeness of irradiated food

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1980
Abstract Health authorities have always required evidence of wholesomeness before approving marketing of irradiated foods because the process of irradiation, like other food-processing techniques, induces chemical changes in food components. Radiation chemistry studies have shown that radiation-induced chemical changes in major food components are ...
