The aim of this article is to develop a method for determining the dose of radiation in the processing of chilled fish and its effect on the antioxidant activity and thermophysical characteristics of muscle tissue. Radiation processing of chilled fish was performed using a linear electron accelerator model LEA-10-10S2. The dose of radiation was determined by the method of electron-paramagnetic resonance. After being treated with ionizing radiation, the cooled fish meets the requirements of the technical regulations of TR TU 021/2011 “On food safety” and TR EAEU 040/2016 “On the safety of fish and fish products”. As a result of our research, a correlation was established between the area of the Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) signal and the absorbed dose of the radiation dose. We proved a decrease in the antioxidant activity of muscle tissue of fish with an increase in radiation dose. It is established that radiation treatment of chilled fish affects the thermophysical properties of muscle tissue.

ABSTRACTGamma- and UV-induced defect centers in germanium and fluorine doped silica have been studied by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The complex spectrum at g≃2 in γ-irradiated germanium doped glass corresponds to a superposition of resonances from several germanium E′-centers. In UV-irradiated samples, however, the EPR spectrum is dominated by only one type of germanium E′-centers. Significant spectral simplification of γ-irradiated germanium doped silica can be achieved by heating or broadband photoirradiation. Similar results are observed in multimode germanium doped core optical fibers. UV-induced optical loss spectra in the 0.5–1.5 μm wavelength range were also measured in these core fibers as well as the growth kinetics of the UL-induced absorption. Gamma-irradiation of fluorine doped silica generated two different types of silicon E′-centers, Ea1. At lower radiation dose one sees a mixture of Ea1 and Ea2, but at higher radiation dose Ea2 dominates. A spectrum dominated by the Ea2 variant is also observed in LW-irradiated samples and in photobleached low gamma dose samples.

This paper is concerned with the investigation of the Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) signal response to Co60 gamma-ray radiation on poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA). The aim of this study is to assess the usefulness of PLA as a high-dose dosimeter. The EPR-signal response of PLA has been investigated to determine some of its dosimetric characteristics such as: signal intensity versus gamma dose received, zero-dose response, signal fading, signal repeatability, batch homogeneity, detection threshold, and stability under simulated sunlight exposure. It is concluded that PLA might be used as a high-dose dosimeter.

Работа рассматривает мировой опыт по исследованию радиационно-обработанной пищевой продукции методом электронного парамагнитного резонанса (ЭПР). Работа проведена с целью оценки перспективности применения метода ЭПР-спектрометрии для идентификации радиационно-обработанной продукции при оценке качества продукции, поступаемой на продовольственный рынок. Метод ЭПР-спектрометрии заключается в идентификации и дозовой оценке радиационно-обработанной и необработанной продукции методом анализа ЭПР-спектров исследуемого образца. Рассмотрены ЭПР-спектры основных видов исследуемых продовольственных продуктов (мясная и рыбная продукция, свежие овощи и фрукты, специи, сухофрукты и орехи). Определены основные параметры ЭПР-спектра, являющиеся маркерами облучения продукции (амплитуда и ширина пика, отношение сигнал/шум, g-фактор). Выявлены основные факторы, влияющие на внешний вид ЭПР-спектра (доза облучения и время, прошедшее после облучения, плотность исследуемого продукта, его атомное и молекулярное строение, химический состав). По итогам проделанной работы планируется создание базы данных, включающей в себя сведения об облученной продукции, основных характеристиках ЭПР-спектров, библиографическую справку и др.
