Bioluminescence imaging of human cultured cells transfected with eNLEX. (A) HeLa cells expressing each color of eNLEX. Scale ...

Imagine plunging into a world where sunlight barely penetrates, and the darkness is suddenly broken by mysterious flashes of ...

Scientists at RIKEN Brain Science Institute reported Friday (February 23) in Science that they have engineered a bioluminescent system that is 1,000 times brighter than existing technology. The new ...

The Purdue Imaging Facility (PIF) is a research resource for Purdue faculty/staff/students and other academics and non-academics who want access to state-of-the-art light microscopy for their research ...

The group is currently engaged in collaborative research with Professor Speck (University Hospital Zurich) developing novel luciferin and luciferases for in vivo bioluminescence imaging applications.

2 Not all bioluminescent marine organism systems can be used for animal imaging because the majority of them generate blue light that does not penetrate tissue appropriately for detection. Furthermore ...

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 ...

New study shines a light on the mechanics of bioluminescence in the rare fish Vinciguerria mabahiss Date: March 26, 2025 Source: Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County Summary: Evolving ...

This light is created by a chemical reaction, and it is one example of a phenomenon called bioluminescence. Bioluminescent organisms produce and radiate light. There are thousands of bioluminescent ...

Evolving roughly 27 different times in the long history of fish, bioluminescence—the biological production of light—is one of the flashier survival tools used for luring prey, communication ...
