Lurge non esiston macchinari che usano raggi x in aricoltura? Tipo per valutare la qualità
so di fotocellule in alcuni macchinari agricoli per velocizzare processi di scelta ma è roba limitata,nelle industrie di trasformazione è un altro discorso

Oh yeah! Il primo articolo su di ciò lo lessi su le Scienze taaaanti anni fa.
La pratica non credo si sia diffusa, forse per problemi di etichettatura che intimorisce il consumatore, costi o altro, ma la cosa è praticabile nonché certificata.
EDIT: forse lo fanno già a nostra insaputa ()

Food Irradiation: What You Need to Know
Irradiation does not make foods radioactive, compromise nutritional quality, or noticeably change the taste, texture, or appearance of food. In fact, any changes made by irradiation are so minimal that it is not easy to tell if a food has been irradiated.
Food irradiation (the application of ionizing radiation to food) is a technology that improves the safety and extends the shelf life of foods by reducing or eliminating microorganisms and insects. Like pasteurizing milk and canning fruits and vegetables, irradiation can make food safer for the consumer. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for regulating the sources of radiation that are used to irradiate food. The FDA approves a source of radiation for use on foods only after it has determined that irradiating the food is safe.
Why Irradiate Food?
Irradiation can serve many purposes.
Prevention of Foodborne Illness – to effectively eliminate organisms that cause foodborne illness, such as*Salmonella*and*Escherichia coli*(E. coli).
Preservation – to destroy or inactivate organisms that cause spoilage and decomposition and extend the shelf life of foods.
Control of Insects – to destroy insects in or on tropical fruits imported into the United States. Irradiation also decreases the need for other pest-control practices that may harm the fruit.
Delay of Sprouting and Ripening – to inhibit sprouting (e.g., potatoes) and delay ripening of fruit to increase longevity.
Sterilization – irradiation can be used to sterilize foods, which can then be stored for years without refrigeration. Sterilized foods are useful in hospitals for patients with severely impaired immune systems, such as patients with AIDS or undergoing chemotherapy. Foods that are sterilized by irradiation are exposed to substantially higher levels of treatment than those approved for general use.
Did you know?
National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) astronauts eat meat that has been sterilized by irradiation to avoid getting foodborne illnesses when they fly in space.
