For instance, bobtail squid host bioluminescent bacteria (Vibrio fischeri) in their underbellies. The bacteria get food from the squid's body and in return emit blue light, which can appear to travel ...

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 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 ...

The spectacular bioluminescent display that lit up our coastline is now creating a less-than-pleasant olfactory experience across West L.A. Nature's light show along L.A.'s coastline has taken an ...

This natural phenomenon is often observed when there is an abundance of bioluminescence in the water, typically from an algae bloom of plankton. When disturbed by waves or splashes at night ...

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 ...

Bioluminescence in the rare Red Sea fish Vinciguerria mabahiss is used for counterillumination, a camouflage technique that makes the fish less visible to predators by mimicking the light from above.

Dinoflagellate bioluminescence is also thought to act as a “burglar alarm” to attract a secondary predator that threatens to eat the primary predator. When handled by a predator, the dinoflagellate ...
