Research Abstract	Xenon gas was pressurized and dissolved into water containing fluorescent reagent (uranine) and the process of the water structured was visualized by the difference in fluorescent intensity. In this case, the appropriate concentration of uranine was revealed to be 5x10-11 M. Once xenon hydrate was generated, the solution became a mixture of structured water in liquid phase and hydrate in solid pahse. In this case, the appropriate concentration of uranine to recognize each phase was 5x10-5 M.
