Radiosensitivity of FCV-F9 on Iceberg lettuce surface after combined treatments with γ-irradiation

What is it about?

The combination of cranberry juice (CJ), ozone (O3) and gamma-irradiation against FCV-F9 virus on surface of lettuce has been tested to observe antiviral effects. We also demonstrated that, the combination of gamma-irradiation, CJ and O3 is more efficient against FCV than alone treatment. Irradiation alone and combined treatments exhibited potent antibacterial activity. Most important, the combined treatment did not change the physico chemical and sensorial properties of lettuce.
