A study was carried out to examine the effect of sample form and storage conditions on the accumulated PPSL signals. Korean perilla and sesame seeds were tested as whole samples and separated minerals. Radiation-induced PPSL signals of perilla and sesame seeds themselves significantly increased with irradiation dose up to 5 kGy. On the other hand, a slight decrease in the accumulated PPSL signals was shown at 10 kGy. Similar results were also found in separated minerals. The accumulated PPSL signals of irradiated samples decreased with increasing storage periods. The decay rate was higher in 5 or 10 kGy-irradiated samples than in 1 kGy, in room conditions than in darkroom conditions, and in sesame and perilla seeds themselves than in separated minerals. The accumulated PPSL signals of the irradiated samples measured fur 120 s were higher than those measured for 60 s. These results indicated that although the PPSL signal of all samples decreased with increasing the storage time, detection of irradiated samples was still possible after 12 months of storage regardless of sample form and measurement times (60 and 120 s) in both room and darkroom conditions.
