Chemiluminescence gets a boost from microwaves

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Lynn M. Savage

Chemiluminescence-based methods of detecting biological processes at the cellular level work well because most samples do not generate unwanted luminescence that must be filtered out. Using these techniques, however, means that one is dependent upon the quantum efficiency of the chemical reaction and the depletion of the reactants over time. Researchers at the University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute (UMBI) in Baltimore recently reported that placing samples on substrates immobilized with deposits of silver nanoparticles enhances chemiluminescence signatures. They reported that...Read full article
