The only instance of bioluminescence in a freshwater animal is Latia neritoides, a limpet-like snail native to New Zealand streams, where it emits a glowing slime when bothered.

Bioluminescence tomography (BLT) is a powerful non-invasive molecular imaging tool for in vivo studies of glioma in mice. However, because of the light scattering and resulted ill-posed problems, it ...

A comparison of BLI and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) with X-ray overlays. At the Centre for Advanced Biomedical Imaging (CABI), we apply this technique to investigate various disease models and ...

Bioluminescent tomography (BLT) has increasingly important applications in preclinical studies. However, the simplified photon propagation model and the inherent ill-posedness of the inverse problem ...

Given this, Isom said, bioluminescence hunters will have a better chance of success close to the shore in bays and inlets, rather than on the open water. "Anything with lake-like conditions," she ...

Bioluminescence “Fireflies use a trick called bioluminescence to create their amazing light,” says Dan Zarlenga, with the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC).

Bioluminescence is the production of light by a living organism due to a chemical reaction, diet, or even through a symbiotic relationship. Let’s dive in and talk chemistry first.

What month is best for bioluminescence? Environmental experts advise that May through November is the best time to see bioluminescence dinoflagellates in Florida, with July and August being the ...

Hundreds of plants, fungi, and animals can do it. Now scientists think bioluminescence may have evolved 540 million years ago in Earth’s ancient oceans.
