Can radioactive isotopes be detected in everyday food products?
In this video, we demonstrate how to screen food samples using a Radiacode gamma spectrometer and a Marinelli beaker. Its shape allows the sample to surround the detector, improving the measurement geometry and helping collect a more detailed gamma spectrum.

We explain how the setup works, how to position the Radiacode, and why longer measurements can help reveal radioactive isotopes that may be difficult to detect in smaller samples.
