A study was carried out to establish the detection method of irradiated agricultural products cultivated in Korea by Thermoluminscece(TL). Samples were irradiated using Co-60 gamma rays at various doses(0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 kGy). After irradiation, separated minerals of the samples measured by TL. TL intensity increased with increasing doses and the irradiated samples were higher than the non-irradiated samples. TL first and second glow curves showed maximum TL temperature point at 176.76~190.08 degrees and 143.84~146.56 degrees, respectively. All the irradiated samples can be classified correctly by the shape of the glow curve and the glow curve ratio. Correlation coefficients of ginger, carrot, potato and sweet potato were 0.9968, 0.8522, 0.9612 and 0.9071, respectively, that showed very high correlation between irradiation dose and TL intensity. Therefore, these results suggest that TL measurement is an useful detection method for irradiated agricultural products.
