The Effects Of Gamma Irradiation On Microbiological Safety, Biological Activities And Gallic Acid Content Of Euodia Malayana, Gnetum Gnemon And Khaya Senegalensis

Medicinal plants such as herbs and spices are often contaminated with high levels of bacteria, fungus and yeasts. Therefore, medicinal plants can be decontaminated using gamma irradiation to sterilize the microorganisms effectively. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of gamma radiation...
