Abstract

The article discusses the aspects of storage and transportation of bakery products and the features of radiation treatment of food, which is an alternative to traditional methods. The article shows the mechanism on which this method is based – the effect of ionizing radiation on products, which effectively destroys pathogenic microorganisms, prevents spoilage and prolongs the shelf life of products. The study is devoted to the problem of microbiological safety of products and the related problem of processing bakery products and, in general, the problem of the quality of the logistical component of the bakery supply chain from the seller to the buyer.
