报道了采用γ射线辐照技术保藏莲子的试验结果。试验发现危害莲子的主要虫害是象鼻虫,主要霉变是青霉和米曲霉。实验得出杀虫剂显为0.8kGy,灭菌剂量为5kGy。采用布袋包装的辐照莲子经仓库贮藏观察,贮藏期达三年之久,不虫蛀、不霉变。对辐照样测试结果证明,辐照保藏不影响莲子的营养成分,无致病菌检出,对人们食用是卫生安全的。 The experimental results of using γ-ray irradiation to preserve lotus seeds were reported. Test found that the main insect pests infestation is weevil, the main mildew is Penicillium and Aspergillus. Experiments showed that the pesticide was significantly 0.8kGy, sterilization dose of 5kGy. The use of bagged irradiated lotus seeds stored in the warehouse observation, storage period of up to three years, not moth-eaten, not moldy.
