Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy was used to investigate the effect of irradiation dose and storage time on the free radical concentrations in gamma-irradiated sesame (Korean and Sudan) and perilla seeds (Korea). The samples were sealed with packed pyrex tube (50 g respectively) and then irradiated with doses of 0, 1, 5 and 10 kGy at room temperature using a Co-60 irradiator. Each sample in ESR quartz tube were calculated with ESR signals by Bruker-EPR spectrometer for 4 weeks. Free radicals detected for irradiated and unirradiated samples were higher than those of unirradiated ones. Since the free radical concentrations linearly incresed with the applied doses $(1{\sim}10\;kGy)$, highly positive correlation coefficients $(R^2=0.9926{\sim}0.9994)$ were obtained between irradiation doses and free radical concentrations right after irradiation. Although the free radical concentrations decreased with storage time, the signals of free radical in irradiated samples were observed even after 4 weeks of storage at room temperature.

ESR spectroscopy를 이용하여 방사선 조사된 국내산 참깨와 들깨, 수단산 참깨에서 생성된 라디칼 농도에 조사선량과 저장기간이 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 시료를 50 g씩 pyrex tube에 넣고 밀봉하여 0, 1, 5 및 10 kGy의 Co-60 감마선을 조사하고 각각의 시료를 직경 4 mm의 ESR 석영튜브에 120 mg씩 넣은 후 상온에서 4주간 보관하면서 일정기간에 따라 Bruker-EPR spectrometer를 이용하여 ESR 신호를 측정하였다. 실험결과 조사 직후 감마선 조사된 국내산 참깨와 들깨, 수단산 참깨는 비조사시료와 비교하여 조사시료의 신호 크기가 매우 커서 비조사시료와 쉽게 구별할 수 있었다. 적용선량의 범위에서$(1{\sim}10\;kGy)$ 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 라디칼 농도는 비례적으로 증가하였으며, 선량의 증가에 따른 라디칼 농도의 증가를 나타낸 $R^2$$0.9926{\sim}0.9994$의 높은 값을 나타내었다. 국내산 참깨와 들깨, 수단산 참깨의 라디칼 신호는 4주간의 저장 후에도 관찰할 수 있어 ESR spectroscopy를 이용한 국내산 참깨와 들깨, 수단산 참깨의 방사선 조사여부 판별은 4주간의 저장 후에도 측정 가능한 방법임을 알 수 있었다.
