摘要
Imported commercial samples of Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) tea leaves were characterized by thermoluminescence (TL) and photoluminescence (PSL) physical methods. Samples of Yerba Mate were irradiated between 0.5-50 Gy and 20 Gy-5 kGy gamma doses by using two different dose rates from Co-60 irradiators. The Electron Dispersive Analysis (EDS) shows that the inorganic fraction is mainly composed by quartz and Ca-feldspars minerals. These polyminerals show a good sensitivity to gamma radiation and to UV light (530 nm). Linear dose-response curves were obtained between 0.5 and 12 Gy at low dose-rate, and with 20 to 500 Gy at high dose-rate of gamma radiation. At higher doses (600 Gy) an apparent slow saturation effect was observed. Low fading of the U signal was found. The detection limits of TL and PSL are 6 Gy and 300 Gy, respectively. Results show that luminescence emission (TL and PSL) is a reliable method for detection of irradiation Yerba Mate. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
