Abstract

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy was used to detect free radicals in irradiated dried vegetables. Dried carrot, mushroom and green onion were irradiated with doses of 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 kGy at room temperature using a Co-60 irradiator. Free radicals were detected in irradiated dried carrot, green onion and mushroom, while those were not detected in non-irradiated samples. Since concentration of free radicals linearly increased with applied doses (1~7 kGy), highly positive correlation coefficients ($R^2$=0.9747~0.9919) were obtained between irradiation doses and free radical concentrations right after irradiation. Although concentration of free radicals slowly decreased with storage time, the characteristic ESR signals of free radicals slowly decreased with storage time, the characteristic ESR signals of free radical in irradiated samples were observed even after 3 months of storage at room temperature.

본 연구는 ESR spectroscopy를 이용하여 free radical 농도를 측정함으로써 건조채소류의 방사선 조사여부를 일정기간 후에도 확인할 수 있는 지를 알아보았다. 라면의 수프에 이용되고 있는 건조된 당근, 표고버섯 및 파를 선택하여 0, 1, 3, 5 및 7 kGy로 Co-60 감마선을 조사한 후, 이를 시료로 Bruker-EPR Spectroscopy를 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험결과 방사선 조사직후에는 조사된 건조 당근, 표고버섯 그리고 파에서 라디칼의 특성신호를 나타내어 비조사시료와 뚜렷하게 구별되었다. 더욱이 적용선량의 범위에서(1~7 kGy) 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 free radical의 농도는 비례적으로 증가하였으며, 선량의 증가에 따른 free radical의 농도의 증가를 나타낸 $R^2$ 값은 0.9747~0.9919의 높은 값을 나타내었다. Free radical의 농도는 저장기간이 경과함에 따라 다소 감소하였으나 4주 이후부터는 감소량이 적었다. 또한 이들 신호는 12주간의 저장기간 후에도 관찰할 수 있어 ESR spectroscopy를 이용한 건조채소류의 방사선 조사여부 판별은 3개월간의 저장후에도 측정 가능한 방법임을 알수 있었다.
