Sucrose and common household sugars (e.g. cane) have been studied as dosemeters for a wide variety of applications. However, previous studies of the post-irradiation time dependence of irradiated sugar did not include an electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) reference material. This work employs synthetic ruby as an EPR reference material to remove significant spectrometer/environmental influences on the measured time-dependent changes in the EPR spectral amplitude of irradiated sucrose. As such, these more accurate measurements should replace the previously published data.
