Food irradiation is a process where food is exposed to ionizing radiation. It is used for sprout inhibition (e.g., in potatoes), insect deinfestation (killing or sterilizing insects on food), and shelf - life extension (by reducing microbial load). However, it does not kill viruses effectively as viruses are more resistant to radiation compared to bacteria, fungi, and insects.
