This is a food related question? If you are worried about food irradiation. Than it is next toimpossible to test for the irradiation. It is something like being exposed to infrared radiation from a warm fire or the ultraviolet radiation from the sun or even the green radiation that is reflected from trees and grass. radiation is all around you. It is called light. Food is irradiated using light that is especially powerful. This light passes through food and kills bacteria. once the light source is turned off and the food is removed the only effect is that the living things (bacteria yeasts and mold) are dead. NO RADIATION REMAINS IN THE FOOD just as you do not radiate ultraviolet after you are out in the sun (you might radiate a bit in infrared (heat) if you are out too long). There are some effects on the chemical structure of irradiated foods these are similar to the food being cooked or in the worst case like having left the food close to florescent lights too long. (Why do people take their milk from the back of the stack at the grocery store. If you are truly interested in checking for radiation you can put a strip of unexposed film where you expect radiation being careful not to expose it to any light. When developed film that has been exposed to radiation will be fogged over.
What else can I help you with?
Why did Rutherford use a lead box?
Rutherford used a lead box to shield against background radiation, which could interfere with his experiments on radioactivity. Lead is a dense material that effectively absorbs radiation, providing a protective barrier for sensitive equipment and preventing external radiation from influencing the results of his experiments.

What is a expirence?
There are many different kinds of controlled experiments. Most controlled experiments have many components that can be kept in check.
What kinds of science experiments can I do that are fun?
Check out http://www.sciencebob.com/experiments/index.php for some ideas. There are tons of experiments listed, you should be able to find something fun.

What three example of radiation?
1. Alpha 2. beta 3. Gamma google "3 type of radiation" and you will get the link below www.blackcatsystems.com/GM/experiments/ex7.html - 7k -
Where can you get simple experiments related to light?
Well, i think ehow.com provides complete experiments, and maybe about light. Try to check it out.
What is meat by dual nature of radiation?
The dual nature of radiation refers to the fact that electromagnetic radiation, like light, exhibits both wave-like and particle-like properties. This duality is described by quantum mechanics, where radiation can behave as waves in some experiments (wave-particle duality) and as particles (photons) in others.
Is there an internship in radiation therapy?
Yes, there is an internship program in radiation therapy. You can check complete details on internet.
What radiation should be used to check the thickness of foil?
I have been stuck on this question 'what radiation should be used to check the thickness of foil?' and recently I have found out that it is 'Gamma' radiation as it can penetrate through a variety of strong surfaces.
Which radiation would you use to check for leaks in pipes?
You would use a gamma radiation source to check for leaks in pipes. Gamma radiation can penetrate materials, making it suitable for detecting leaks in pipes without damaging them.
Why do you do experiments?
We do experiments to find answers to questions, to verify the validity of an answer, to lean how things work and in the scientific method to check if a hypothesis is correct.
