Scope

Scope: This standard specifies the requirements for the development, validation, and routine control of food irradiation processes using ionizing radiation, and provides guidelines for meeting these requirements. Note 1: The requirements of this standard are consistent with those of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC/RCP 19:1979, Rev. 2:2003 and CX/STAN 106:1983, Rev 1:2003). This standard covers irradiation processes using 60 Co or 137 Cs gamma-ray, electron beam, or X-ray devices. This standard sets forth the minimum requirements for controlling food irradiation processes. Note 2: These requirements are specified in the Food Safety Management System (GB/T 22000). This standard does not stipulate requirements for the primary production and/or harvesting of irradiated foods, post-harvest processing, storage and transportation, or food packaging. It only addresses irradiation processes directly related to food production that may affect the safety or quality of irradiated foods. This standard does not specify occupational safety requirements for the design and operation of irradiation facilities. This standard does not include measurement and inspection devices using ionizing radiation. The application of this standard does not exempt users from complying with current applicable laws and regulations. Note 3: Attention should be paid to regulatory and legal requirements for irradiating and selling irradiated foods, as well as authorization requirements for irradiated foods. Main technical content: This standard consists of a preface, an introduction, twelve chapters, and an informative appendix. The first two chapters of the twelve chapters are "Scope" and "Normative References". Chapters 3 to 12 are the specific content of this standard. The standard specific content includes terms and definitions, control of food irradiation processes, irradiation facilities, products, processes, dose measurement, validation, routine monitoring and
