26 Other uses of nuclear radiation Food irradiation: Food irradiation is a technology for controlling spoilage and eliminating food-borne pathogens, such as salmonella. The result is similar to conventional pasteurization and is often called "cold pasteurization" or "irradiation pasteurization." Like pasteurization, irradiation kills bacteria and other pathogens, that could otherwise result in spoilage or food poisoning. The fundamental difference between the two methods is the source of the energy they rely on to destroy the microbes. While conventional pasteurization relies on heat, irradiation relies on the energy of ionizing radiation. The FDA emphasizes that no preservation method is a substitute for safe food handling procedures. 5/1/2012 PHY 114 A Spring Lecture 26 26

28 Measures of radiation: 5/1/2012 PHY 114 A Spring Lecture 26 28
29 Fundamental processes of radiation Nuclear reactions Move nuclei of atoms in materials (Ex: neutrons can cause crystal defects) Produce many electronic excitations excited and/or charged species undergo uncontrolled chemical reactions (Ex. Electrons and γ-rays are examples of effective ionizing radiation); the greater the energy the greater the potential radiation damage The least massive reaction products carry the most energy and are responsible for the most radiation effects 5/1/2012 PHY 114 A Spring Lecture 26 29

32 Other uses of nuclear radiation Carbon dating Living organisms have a ratio of 14 C / 12 C of 1.3x10-12 reflecting normal atmospheric processes. When an organism dies, the ratio is reduced due to the 5730 yr half-life of 14 C. Example from your textbook: A piece of charcoal containing 25 g of carbon is found to have an activity of decays/s. How long ago did the tree live that produced this charcoal? Decay rate when tree was alive for 25 g of C : dn dt N 0 0 = = λn λ = ln yr s/yr = λn 6.25 decays/s 5/1/2012 PHY 114 A Spring Lecture = = 12 /s
