Insect population control& Research
The Rad Source Technologies RS 2400 provides a safe and reliable radiation source for Sterile Insect Technique (SIT). Unlike the other radiation sources,cobalt-60 and cesium-137, Rad Source utilizes their patented X-ray technology to generate a 4pi ionizing radiation field without a radioactive source. Because there is no radioactive source, the RS 2400 is much safer, less expensive to own and operate,ａnd can be easily shipped to almost anywhere in the world.

The RS 2400’s new carousel system, combined with the light-weight, waterproof,carbon fiber reinforced resin canisters, maximizes the utilization of the unique Rad Source 4pi radiation field, resulting in a more uniform dose delivery.
What is Sterile Insect Technique?
Sterile Insect Technique or SIT is a technique used to control or eliminate an insect population? This is achieved through reproductive mate attrition. Generally, the male insect is exposed to radiation and thereby rendered sexually sterile. By mass rearing male insects, sterilizing them, and then releasing them into the desired area the treated males will seek out and mate with the native female insects and their offspring is non-viable. If this process is repeated enough times the insect population can be controlled and or even eliminated. Are Irradiated Insects Radioactive?No, insects that have been sterilized using radiation are not radioactive.

Food Irradiation Testing & Research--RS2400
The RS 2400 is currently being used in 2 different industries which are food irradiation research and insect population control. Food Irradiation Research – Radiation Effects on Seafood and Produce Pathogens The first RS 2400 was installed in 2003 at Mississippi State University for the evaluation of radiation effectiveness in the reduction of dangerous bacteria, such as salmonella, E. coli, vibrio, shigella and listeria on seafood and fresh produce. It is actively being used by Barakat Mahmoud PhD. Food Irradiation Research – Detection of Irradiated Food In April of 2009, an RS 2400 was installed in Foggia, Italy at the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Puglia e della Basilicata (IZS) and is used in the research of detecting food irradiated with ionizing radiation. In Europe, as in many countries of the world, the irradiation of food is an acceptable method of food preservation. The European Union (EU) approves which foods can be irradiated and to what range of radiation doses. It requires that all irradiated foods be clearly labeled and that market-level inspections are completed to ensure compliance with the regulations. IZS is using their RS 2400 to develop testing methods to determine whether or not a food has been irradiated.
