Figure 1. Millipede luminescence and predation. (A) Motyxia sequoiae photographed in natural light, and (B) entirely with light from bioluminescence; (C) Mean proportion of millipedes attacked versus luminescence. Number of individuals attacked above bars; (D) Rodent incisor marks in clay millipede; (E) Live millipede (arrow) with anterior segments 1–14 missing after predator attack. Biolumines...

We report an investigation of luminescent and tunable photonic crystal structures formed by the infiltration and inversion of opal templates with high index and luminescent materials. Protocols are reported for the deposition of these materials and the properties of the resulting structures investigated by conventional structural and optical measurements. The properties of multi-layered and bac...

Reporter genes, such as luciferase, are important tools for studying gene expression. The use of reporter genes allows the in vitro and in vivo measurement of gene expression from virtually any endogenous genetic control element. Luciferase enzyme and its subsequent luminescent reaction is often the gene reporter of choice for many experimental conditions. Here we describe the measurement of lu...

G-quadruplexes represent a versatile sensing platform for the construction of label-free molecular detection assays owing to their diverse structures that can be selectively recognized by G-quadruplex-specific luminescent probes. In this Survey and Summary, we highlight recent examples of the application of the label-free strategy for the development of G-quadruplex-based luminescent detection ...
