Question:
Ionizing radiation is being given increasing attention as a method for preserving horticultural products. The article “The Influence of Gamma-Irradiation on the Storage Life of Red Variety Garlic” (J. of Food Processing and Preservation, 1983: 179–183) reports that 153 of 180 irradiated garlic bulbs were marketable (no external sprouting, rotting, or softening)
240 days after treatment, whereas only 119 of 180 untreated bulbs were marketable after this length of time. Does this data suggest that ionizing radiation is beneficial as far as marketability is concerned?
