The benefits of food irradiation to the public health have been
described extensively by organizations such as the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention in the USA and the World Health
Organization. The American Medical Association and the American
Dietetic Association have both endorsed the irradiation process.
Yet the potential health benefits of irradiation are unknown to
many consumers and food industry representatives who are wary of
irradiated foods due to myth-information from
"consumer-advocate" groups.
This updated second edition of Food Irradiation Research and
Technology reviews the latest developments in irradiation
technologies as they are applied to meat, seafood fish, fruits,
vegetables and nuts. Experts from industry, government, and
academia define the basic principles and public health benefits of
irradiation.
New chapters in this edition address irradiation chemistry,
including furan formation due to irradiation, irradiation of
packaging materials, processing irradiation technologies and
parameters, and ready-to-eat meat products. Coverage of safety and
quality of fresh fruits and vegetables, phytosanitary applications
and consumer acceptance has been expanded to address recent
interest and development.
The book is designed to appeal to a broad readership: industry
food scientists involved in the processing of meat and fish, fruits
and vegetables; food microbiologists and radiation processing
specialists; and government and industry representatives involved
in the import and export of food commodities.
