| maisto poreikis | food requirement (The minimum food ration required for satisfying the essential needs of an organism) | |
| maisto pramonė | food industry (The commercial production and packaging of foods that are fabricated by processing, by combining various ingredients, or both) | |
| maisto prekyba | food commerce (An interchange of any food commodity or related food products, usually on a large scale) | |
| maisto produktas | foodstuff (A substance that can be used or prepared for use as food) | |
| maisto švitinimas | food irradiation (The most recent addition to food preservation technologies is the use of ionizing radiation, which has some distinct advantages over conventional methods. With irradiation, foods can be treated after packaging, thus eliminating post-processing contamination. In addition, foods are preserved in a fresh state and can be kept longer without noticeable loss of quality. Food irradiation leaves no residues, and changes in nutritional value due to irradiation are comparable with those produced by other processes. Irradiation is the process of applying high energy to a material, such as food, to sterilize or extend its shelf-life by killing microorganisms, insects and other pests residing on it. Sources of ionizing radiation that have been used include gamma rays, electron beams and X-rays. Gamma rays are produced by radioactive isotopes such as Cobalt-60. Electron beams are produced by linear accelerators, which themselves are powered by electricity. The dose applied to a product is themost important factor of the process. At high doses, food is essentially sterilized, just as occurs in canning. Products so treated can be stored at room temperature almost indefinitely. Controversial and banned in some countries) | |
