Radiation processing has become a well-known and well-accepted technology worldwide using different type gamma irradiation facilities, electron accelerators and X-ray machines. The technology is applied at various fields like radiation sterilization of medical devices, manufacturing of polymer products used in industry and health care, irradiation of various food and agricultural products, as...

Low energy electron beams (100-200 keV) are used for sterilization or microbiological decontamination of surfaces in the medical device and pharmaceutical industry. This paper describes dosimetry methods used for validation and routine process control of these processes.
Dosimetry methods employed in high energy e-beam or gamma sterilization cannot be used at low energy e-beam, where the...

Regulations and ISO standards applicable for medical devices require that validation of a process shall be performed. In fact, both the U.S. Quality System Regulation 21 CFR Part 820 and ISO 13485:2012 have explicit elements requiring the manufacturer to perform tasks associated with IQ, OQ and PQ.
Only after performing IQ, OQ, PQ successfully with a desired result and established documents...

In order to adapt the development of radiation processing and ensure that the product has been treated with an acceptable range of absorbed doses in China, a program of high dose standardization was initialed in1983. The high-dose standards and dissemination system has been established at NIM. The ferrous sulfate (Fricke) dosimeter is accepted as national reference standards, the ceric-cerous...

During the last two decades, a team of NCRRT researchers developed and
assisted many dosimetry systems depending on the electron paramagnetic
resonance (EPR) analyzing method. EPR dosimetry is characterized by
its non-destructive read-out and the possibility of dose archival.
Recently, monosodium glutamate powder and prepared rods containing
different concentration of it ($3\times 10$ mm)...
