Purpose To determine whether reactive oxygen species (ROS) in semen samples could be measured with the Monolight™ 3010 Luminometer. Methods Using the Monolight™ 3010 Luminometer, the ROS was measured in the unprocessed semen samples of infertile male patients, as well as the luminescence of 190 semen samples. The samples were classified as "luminescence-detectable" (n = 89) and "luminescence-...

We assessed the adenosine triphosphate luminometer as a tool for point-of-cleaning education. Following a terminal cleaning, infection preventionists met with cleaning staff and used the luminometer to evaluate multiple surfaces; 820 surfaces in 210 rooms were sampled. The mean proportion of clean surfaces improved significantly over the study period, P = .012. These findings suggest that direc...

coastal region of chah bahar port, sea of oman, was screened for the presence of bioluminescence bacteria for the first time. water samples were taken from surface and subsurface layers and immediately spread on nutrient seawater complete (swc) agar. luminous colonies were observed after an overnight incubation at 25°c. among twenty luminous isolates, four of them were selected for preliminary ...
