Using Nuclear Science in Food Irradiation

Food Irradiation involves shining electromagnetic radiation like X-rays and gamma rays or electron beams onto food to maintain food quality, kill harmful bacteria and control insects. The technique destroys microorganisms that can cause illness or food to decay. Not only does it reduce the risk of food poisoning, it can also extend the shelf life of food products.

Gamma rays have high frequancy of electromagnetic energy that emitted by the radioactive cobalt 60 and this radiation doesn't cause food to become radioactive or it's self

[@CamyBreaks]

Yes thank you for this video. We truly need to educate more people regarding this matter as consuming irradiated food is not widely acceptable

[@andrevidal9887]

Why do people still not accepting food irradiation? How could we end this radiophobia? I guess it's a question that just time can answer...

[@mhf_98]

I really like this explaination. Can i get your permit to dub and subtitling this video in other language and upload it to my class' account? It would be better if more people watch this video.
