• Irradiation is the process of exposing an object to nuclear radiation.
• The irradiated object does not become radioactive.
• Suitable precautions must be taken to protect against any hazard
• Understanding that it is important for the findings of studies into the effects of radiation on humans to be published and shared with other scientists so that the findings can be checked by peer review.
