Microbiological quality of irradiated brown rice and RTE pre-cut fresh fruits and mixed vegetables was analyzed.
- class="label">•
Irradiation of brown rice at 1 kGy significantly reduced its microbial load.
- class="label">•
Irradiation of brown rice did not affect its over-all sensory acceptability.
- class="label">•
1 kGy significantly reduced the level of microbial contamination in pre-cut fresh fruits & mixed vegetables.

We therefore recommend its serving to immuno-compromised patients.
