Summary

A rapid method was developed by incubating chicken meat at 37 deg C for 6-7 hours with bacteria followed by estimation of volatile acids (TVA) and bases (TVBN). A 40-50% reduction in TVA and TVBN in irradiated samples was observed suggesting its possible application for detecting irradiated meat samples.
