however its specific mechanisms and interactions within the body had been poorly understood. "We used bioluminescence technology, a scientific method harnessing the natural light produced by ...

Their innovative design leverages BRET -- bioluminescence resonance energy transfer -- and exhibits great potential for point-of-care testing, therapeutic drug monitoring, and environmental ...

What does it mean if a creature is bioluminescent? Bioluminescence is light produced by an organism using a chemical reaction ...

Promega has unveiled the new GloMax Galaxy Bioluminescence Imager, a benchtop instrument designed to transform how scientists visualize protein dynamics. According to the company, the new imager ...

By chance, two Zurich-based artists have discovered the bioluminescence of a mushroom. Together with a mycologist from the ...

It is caused by bioluminescent plankton ... The reason they do that is a predator avoidance mechanism," he explained, adding it would either startle the predator or potentially light it enough ...
