In the Food-tester device IH-111, developed with MoD Institute of Military Technology, the measuring
process and system-technological configuration included in GAMMA Technical Corporation's service
invention has been put into practice. According to this we can rapidly obtain several information about the
contamination, using one single detector, through the selective measuring of the beta- and gamma
radiation of any radioisotopes of fission or activation origin. The principle of the process is the fact that
isotopes having characteristically simultaneous beta and gamma radiation, both those with short or long
half-period, can be divided into groups in a simple way as a function of their energy. Based on the groups,
user can determine the ratio of isotopes having short and long half-period. Comparing the radioactive
concentration of the isotopes to the standards you can automatically decide whether the food is
consumable or not.
