PHYTOSANITARY TREATMENT OF FISH AND SEAFOOD

Phytosanitary treatment with accelerated electrons and X-rays makes it possible to solve the problem of providing the population with quality products.

In the process of product processing, penetrating through ionizing radiation breaks the DNA of pathogenic microorganisms, thereby destroying them.

The processing process is environmentally friendly, as only electricity from the network is used without the use of chemicals and radioactive isotopes of Cobalt-60.
FOOD SAFETY AND QUALITY

Irradiating food has the same benefits as when it is heated, refrigerated, frozen or treated with chemicals, but without changing the temperature or leaving residues. The technique controls spoilage and food-borne pathogenic micro-organisms or insect pests without significantly affecting taste or smell.

IONIZING RADIATION TECHNOLOGY
FOR SEAFOOD TREATMENT
Irradiation by electron accelerators uses high energy of electrons and X-rays to eliminate pathogens, bacteria, helminths.
Working principle of electron accelerator: Electron accelerator generates and accelerates electrons to high speeds, penetrating the product, and induce breaks in the DNA of pathogens.
The temperature of irradiated seafood can vary from -32°C to +4°C. The products can be treated in any kind of packaging. No residual radiation left in the product as the treatment done with low irradiation doses.

Irradiation by electron accelerators uses high energy of electrons and X-rays to eliminate pathogens, bacteria, helminths.

BENEFITS OF SEAFOOD IRRADIATION

  • Rreduction of pathogens
  • Shelf life extension
  • No recontamination as seafood may be treated in vacuum sealed packages
  • The cellular and molecular structure of seafood is not affected. Nutritional elements (vitamins, proteins, fats, amino acids) are retained for the entire duration of shelf life.
  • The reduction of antibiotics and hormones content in the products
  • No residual radiation
