Overview

ABSTRACT

At this time, the physico-chemical analysis of food allows for the detection of irradiated foods. This article details the principle and role of international organizations in radiations. It then analyzes the detection methods for irradiated foods and medicines. Several protocols have been standardized by the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) . These qualitative methods can be applied to quality control in the agrifood sector and to fraud detection in labelling.
