Researchers tagged mouse RNA with the enzyme that makes fireflies glow, in hopes of better understanding how viruses and ...

Imaging live cells with fluorescent proteins has long been a crucial technique for understanding cellular behavior. While ...

bioluminescence serves as a vital tool in advancing our understanding of the natural world and improving human health. As research continues to explore the vast potential of these luminous ...

Lanternfishes have light-producing organs on their bodies that are called photophores. This light is created by a chemical reaction, and it is one example of a phenomenon called bioluminescence.

The Olympus LV200 Luminoview has been optimized for collecting the faint light associated with bioluminescence, providing consistent cellular-level clarity. The path from the object to the camera ...

Bioluminescence is widely used for in vivo imaging of nude mice. By conjugating luciferase protein to quantum dots, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) turns these useful fluorophores ...

The Branchini Bioluminescence Research Group (BRG) at Connecticut College is under the direction of Professor Bruce Branchini in the Department of Chemistry. Bioluminescence — the emission of light by ...

A German engineer set a Guinness World Record by living 120 days in an underwater capsule off Panama's coast, surpassing the ...

The flashlight fish is not alone in using bacteria as light factories. Similar organs housing bioluminescent bacteria are found in deep sea anglerfishes and ponyfishes, too. In fact, a 2016 study ...

In the world of bioluminescence, it’s common for organisms to get luciferin—the small molecule needed to make light—from their diet. Scientists have hypothesized that bioluminescent fish make their ...
