Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) finds Applications in the field of dose determination for irradiation-Food Irradiation Testing and Occupational Disease Prevention
With the widespread use of gamma rays in industries, agriculture, medicine, and food, accurate measurement of radiation dose has become increasingly important. EPR Spectrometer is currently the only direct method to detect unpaired electrons in a sample, allowing for the precise measurement of radiation dose by detecting the free radicals generated in the irradiated material. The radiation dose can be categorized into low dose (less than 1 kGy), medium dose (1-10 kGy), and high dose (greater than 10 kGy), and its effects can range from no clinical symptoms to severe symptoms, early fatal clinical symptoms, and early death. After decades of research, various…
