บทคัดย่อ: Plants are good sources of bioactive compounds that have great antioxidant potential. Both the content and structure of the compounds are easily altered by processing, including gamma irradiation. Food irradiation has many useful applications: sprouting inhibition; killing insects and parasites; delaying ripening and spoilage; extending the shelf life of perishable products; eliminating pathogenic bacteria, fungal spores and viruses; and sterilizing herbs, dried vegetables, food prescribed for immunocompromised hospital patients and for astronauts during space flight. Commonly two techniques introduced for commercial food irradiation are gamma rays, and electron accelerators. Gamma irradiation is an important technology in the fruit and vegetable industry because the consumers want fresh food materials and unpasteurized products has been increased. IAEA and WHO concluded that irradiation of any food commodity up to an overall average dose of 10 kGy presents no toxicological hazard and hence toxicological testing of foods is no longer required. © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
