Summary

THE SUPERCOOLING TEMPERATURES OF GAMMA-IRRADIATED AND CONTROL COD, MUSHROOM, AND 2 CHICKENS WERE MEASURED USING A DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETER. THE MEAN SUPERCOOLING TEMPERATURES WERE SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER IN 3 OUT OF THE 4 SAMPLES OF THE IRRADIATED FOODS, SUGGESTING THAT THE EFFECT MIGHT BE THE RESULT OF IRRADIATION. THERE WAS HIGH VARIABILITY BETWEEN SAMPLES AND A POSSIBLE DEPENDENCE ON SPOILAGE.
