Bioluminescent algae’s blue light harnessed to make 3D-printed shapes
Scientists suggest algae could be embedded within biosensors that glow when toxins detected in the environment
The captivating blue glow emitted by a sea-dwelling species of algae has been harnessed by scientists in the US to make light-emitting structures.
Pyrocystis lunula is a bioluminescent single-celled organism that sometimes produces brief flashes of blue light. Large clumps of the algae are known to emit sparkling displays in waves breaking against beaches. Continue reading...
