The present investigations involved a study of the possibility of bacteriological decontamination of chicken meat by ionizing radiation at doses of 2, 2.5 and 3 kGy, using eight pathogenic Salmonella species as test microorganisms. The results obtained show that the Salmonella species differ significantly in respect of their sensitivity to the employed irradiation doses. Among the investigated species, the highest radioresistance was recorded for the Salmonella enteritidis and Salmonella agona species. It was established that they survived the treatment at the dose of 3 kGy, i.e. that this dose caused only a radurization effect.
