Abstract
Salmonella enteritidis, S. typhimurium, Campylobacter jejuni and Listeria monocytogenes frequently cause foodborne infections. Food of animal origin, especially poultry, poultry products, eggs and egg products are main sources of contamination. To ensure hygienic quality of these products, it is necessary to take protective measures—not only of a hygienic nature. Food irradiation is one of the protective methods available. Comprehensive data concerning sensory, physiological and toxicological characteristics of irradiated food exist. However, to determine eventual sources of risk associated with the inappropriate use of radiation, it is necessary to generate additional comprehensive microbiological and engineering data for all foods concerned. Finally, predictive modelling will contribute considerably to the solution of the overall problem.
