The detection of irradiation of several classes of food products with the use of thermoluminescence (TL) and photostimulated luminescence (PPSL) has been proceeded. The comparison of the results obtained by both methods has been done and reliability of the PPSL method as compared with the TL method evaluated. Conclusion concerning the usefulness of such evaluation to the practice has been drawn.
