Use of X-Irradiations in Reducing the Waste of Aflatoxin-Contaminated Pistachios and Evaluation of the Physicochemical Properties of the Irradiated Product

This study investigates the effects of electron beam irradiation (0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 kGy) on <i>Aspergillus flavus</i>, aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), and the physicochemical properties of pistachios. The findings suggested that e-beam significantly reduced the spore population of <i>A. flavu...
