dc.description.abstractThe assessment and management of risk must satisfy the requirements set forth by importing nations in order for the Turkish agriculture sector to develop linearly. It must also guarantee that trade-related biosecurity risks are appropriately managed. In terms of agricultural exports, citrus fruits account for a significant portion of Türkiye's exports. On the other hand, conventional approaches are utilized to battle the Mediterranean fruit fly agent in addition to microbiological losses in the export of these products. It is widely accepted that fruits can have their risk factors minimized through the application of irradiation. Low-energy electron beam (LEEB) applications for fresh fruit phytosanitary purposes have gained significance recently. After conducting studies, it has emerged that using LEEB for the eradication of microorganisms on or near food surfaces or for phytosanitary purposes is both a sustainable and effective option in the food industry. This study provides a review of LEEB and gamma irradiation applications on citrus group fruits based on previous research. Additionally, a comparison will be conducted between both methods in terms of phytosanitary procedures, microbiological decontamination, and food quality. Also, conceptual and practical recommendations for potential LEEB technique use in the future were discussed.
