Bioluminescence Characteristics, Adaptations and Biotechnology


Free Download David J. Rodgerson, "Bioluminescence: Characteristics, Adaptations and Biotechnology "
English | ISBN: 1612097472 | 2011 | 177 pages | PDF | 9 MB
This book presents current research data in the study of the characteristics, adaptations and biotechnology of bioluminescence. Topics discussed include ATP-Driven bioluminescence; the coupling of luciferases to nanomaterials; the characteristics and adaptations of bioluminescent bacterial biosensors for acyl-HSL signal detection, quantification and tentative identification of acyl-HSLs; using bacterial biosensors to determine the toxicity of nanomaterials and other xenobiotics; and, the visual spectral mechanisms and bioluminescent optical signaling in beetles.
