Non-thermal ways to pasteurize or sterilise - Preservation by Irradiation - Susceptibility of microorganisms to radiation

4 important questions on Non-thermal ways to pasteurize or sterilise - Preservation by Irradiation - Susceptibility of microorganisms to radiation

What kind of bacteria are the most effected by irradiation?

Gram negative bacteria

What does a low dose of radiation do?

inhibition sprouting in bulbs and tubers (kiemen in bollen en knollen), delay fruit riping and kill insects and other multicellular parasites.

What does a intermediate dose of radiation do?

a reduction of micro organismes and therefore prolongs the shelf-life
(herbs, spices, meat seafood poultry)
