Food irradiation is useful because it kills bacteria in food that can make you sick, extending the shelf life of such foods as a result. In the process, it does not make the food radioactive or in ...

In medical applications that involve using radioactive sources, efforts are made to ensure that irradiation does not cause any long-term effects. This is done by considering: If the half-life ...

Food irradiation involves ionizing radiation and uses X-rays, gamma rays or high-energy electron beams. In 2003, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, a body established by the FAO and the World Health ...

More comfort for seriously ill patients: MHH radiotherapy works with a rotating table ...

The time may come, however, when radioactive isotopes will prove to be of greater value. It is the policy of the hospital not to use any form of prolonged irradiation, whether for diagnosis ...

This radioactive metal is mined from solidified ... This process releases energy which can be used to generate power, until (once irradiated) it becomes uranium-233 which can fuel nuclear reactors.

mutants were selected from the irradiated MEFC09-Δku80 mutant library. The results showed that end-joining deficient strain is more sensitive to heavy-ion radiation, resulting in higher lethality ...
