Personnel neutron dosimetry is of utmost importance due to high relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of neutrons as compared to other ionizing radiations. Thermoluminescence (TL) is one of the most widely...
One of the important technologies for food preservation and processing is radiation processing, which is growing at ever increasing rate in India. Efforts are being done to make it more cost-effective, so there is always a need for cost-effective, indigenously developed visual indicators for providing an easy identification and segregation of irradiated products. Thus development of cost-effective visual indicator based on leuco crystal violet for doses ≥ 10 kGy was under taken. Current research works deals with fabrication and characterization of various parameters such as optimum composition, light stability, temperature effect and effect of relative humidity on the new indicator.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
