nonirradiated
Avoided radiation treatment
Not exposed to radiation.
The term appears most often in food labeling and scientific contexts, distinguishing products or samples that haven't undergone radiation treatment: nonirradiated spices, nonirradiated control group.
In food processing, irradiation kills bacteria, so nonirradiated items have been preserved or sterilized by other means.
