Abstract
⺠γ-irradiation at 20 kGy is needed to decontaminate olive leaf. ⺠Microbial population in olive leaf is highly radioresistant (D10:9.74-25.12 kGy). ⺠γ-irradiation maintains total phenolic, diphenols, flavonoids, oleuropein, verbascoside and rutin contents. ⺠γ-irradiation maintains the quality of phenols: TEAC, molecular mass distribution. ⺠Behavior of olive leaf after γ-irradiation isn't affected by the form of the sample.
