Like other bacterial bioluminescence, milky seas have a steady, even gleam “like the glow-in-the-dark plastic stars you can buy your kids,” according to a 1980 U.S. Navy sighting.

Organotin compounds are toxic and endocrine disrupting compounds, which have been intensively used as antifouling paints for ship hulls and thus are widely spread in the environment. They are ...

Bioluminescence tomography (BLT) is an inverse source problem that localizes and quantifies bioluminescent probe distribution in 3-D. The generic BLT model is ill-posed, leading to nonunique solutions ...

It’s a scientific fact that the population of Seattle expands tenfold the moment sunsets creep past 8pm. Beaches are suddenly populated like sold-out Capitol Hill Block Parties with picnickers and ...

As a trace element nutrient, cobalt is critical for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In the current study, a turn-on Cobalt Bioluminescent Probe 1 (CBP-1) for the detection of cobalt has been ...

Capcom Drops the First Trailer for ‘Resident Evil requiem’: The iconic survival horror game franchise returns in 2026 with a new chapter.

New bioluminescence tool LUCAS detects viruses faster and more accurately, revolutionizing diagnostics with enhanced brightness and endurance.

How bioluminescence works in nature. Most ocean animals produce their own light or host bacteria that do—a useful skill for communication, finding prey, camouflage, and more.

You can actually hold the bioluminescence in your hand, whereas the dinoflagellates, you can’t hold that in your hand. Once they light up once, they’re done,” Jungle Jay said.

The flashing phenomenon is called bioluminescence, a natural process also seen in certain fungi, fish, shrimp, jellyfish, plankton, salamanders, gnats, glowworm beetles and other organisms, the ...

Unlike bioluminescence (as seen in creatures like fireflies and glowworms), which releases high-intensity visible light, UPE results in extremely low-intensity light our eyes cannot see.

Compared to its diagnostic predecessors, LUCAS creates 500-fold stronger and eight-fold longer-lasting bioluminescence signals, overcoming longstanding challenges faced by point-of-care diagnostics.
