Abstract
Pink shrimp from each of two geographical regions (Thailand and Irelan d) were frozen and either not irradiated or given doses of 1-5 kGy. Fo llowing irradiation the samples were stored for up to 28 days at - 20 degrees C after which the cuticle was removed and analysed by ESR spec troscopy. The ESR signals derived from the irradiated cuticle of shrim p originating from both locations were similar in shape although signa l intensity was significantly affected by geographical region, irradia tion dose and storage.
