Imagine gliding across a midnight bay, your paddle slicing through inky black water, only to see shimmering blue light ...

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.

Bioluminescence, Widder believes ... Widder worries about the implications for human health, too. “ When I started ORCA, it was about protecting the ocean I loved,” she says.

The firefly petunias were invented by Light Bio. A group of bioengineers spliced the petunia’s DNA with bioluminescent ...

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 ...

Imagine wandering through a dark, silent forest at midnight, when suddenly, the ground beneath your feet begins to shimmer ...

Welcome to bioluminescence—nature’s mind-blowing ability to create its own light, which is is taking noctourism from the heavens down to earth. “You interact with it,” says Dr.

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 ...
