SUMMARY Sixty- two randome samples of corned beef and milk powder were analyzed for gamına radiation. The obtained results indicated that the mean levels of gamma radiation were 0.0021 +0.00053, 0.0021 +0.000045 and 0.0022+0.000021 Bg/Kg in the examined samples of local processed and imported corned beef and milk powder, respectively. Gamina radiation level of all types of the examined samples were within the nornal rate in comparison with mean level of the back ground (air) 0.0020+0.000075 BK/Kg., but lower than the maximum concentration in foods. The public health importance of gamına radionuclides was discussed.
