초록

Ionizing radiation is one of the efficient nonthermal pasteurization methods. The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) allows the use of ionizing radiation to a dose up to 10 kGy for controlling foodborne pathogens and extending the self-life of foods. Recently X-rays, generated on absorption of high energy electrons in an appropriate metal target, have been used commercially for sterilization purposes. X-rays have the advantages of higher penetration power than E-beams and absence of harmful radioactive sources, such as Cobalt-60 or Cesium-137 associated with gamma-rays. That is why it has continued to receive attention as an attractive alternative to gamma-ray or E-beam irradiation. In this article, the potential of X-ray irradiation for controlling foodborne pathogens in various food products and necessary pre-requisite knowledge for the introduction of X-ray irradiation to the Korean food industry will be provided.
