Abstract

An improved detection of radiation-induced paramagnetic faults was developed to identify the irradiation status of basil and clove. The effectiveness of different sample pretreatments, including freeze-drying (FD), oven-drying (OD), alcoholic-extraction (AE), and water-washing and alcoholic-extraction (WAE), were examined. All non-irradiated samples showed a single central signal ($g_0$=2.006), whereas radicals representing two additional side peaks ($g_1$=2.023 and $g_2$=1.986) with a mutual distance of 6 mT were detected in the irradiated samples. AE and WAE produced the best results for irradiated clove in terms of intensities of radiation-specific ESR signals and their ratios to the central signal. However, FD provided the highest intensities of radiation-specific ESR signals for basil, whereas their ratios to the major signal were better in the cases of AE and WAE. Signal noise, particularly due to $Mn^{2+}$ signals, was observed, whereas it decreased in AE and WAE pretreatments. Based on our results, AE and WAE can improve the detection conditions for radiation-specific ESR signals in irradiated samples.

섬유소 식품 중 바질과 정향의 방사선 조사처리 여부 확인을 위한 전자스핀공명분석법(ESR)의 개선을 위해 동결건조(FD), 상압건조(OD), 알코올건조(AE), 알코올세척건조(WAE) 처리하여 cellulose radical을 확인하였다. 비 조사 시료는 모두 singlet signal($g_0$=2.006)을 나타내었고, 조사된 시료의 경우는 모두 singlet signal을 중심으로 두 개의 side peak($g_1$=2.023 and $g_2$=1.986)가 6 mT 간격으로 나타나 cellulose 유래의 signal을 확인할 수 있었다. AE, WAE 처리한 정향의 경우, 조사유래의 cellulose radical의 ESR intensity가 증가하였으며, central peak와 side peak의 비율도 판별에 매우 적합하였다. 그러나 FD 처리한 바질의 경우 ESR intensity는 가장 크게 나타났으나, signal ratio는 AE, WAE 처리하였을 때 더 이상적이었다. 또한 $Mn^{2+}$ signal 유래의 radical은 AE, WAE 처리한 시료에서 크게 감소하여, FD 및 OD에 비해 매우 명확한 조사여부 판별이 가능하였다. 따라서 AE, WAE 처리는 바질과 정향의 조사여부 판별방법을 크게 개선시키는 것으로 확인되었으며, 기타 향신료에 대해서도 ESR spectra 분석에 적용 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.
