Método físico de conservación, comparable a otros que utilizan el calor o el frío. Consiste en exponer el producto a la acción de las radiaciones ionizantes durante un cierto lapso, que es proporcional a la cantidad de energía que deseemos que el alimento absorba. 5, record 1, Spanish, - irradiaci%C3%B3n
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La irradiación de alimentos consiste en exponerlos a energía procedente de fuentes como los rayos gamma, los rayos X o los haces de electrones. Durante este proceso, el alimento no se calienta, como ocurre cuando se somete a microondas, ni retiene radiación. La irradiación no hace que los alimentos sean radioactivos. 6, record 1, Spanish, - irradiaci%C3%B3n
