Re: irradiated mail
No standard dosimeter can be used since the dose used in the sanitation process is

Instruments that have integrated circuits, microprocessors, liquid crystal displays are
also significantly damaged.
Your alternative is NOT to ship via USPS. Go with UPS ground or some other
mailing firm.
