This enlightening new volume details over 200 species of bioluminescent marine fishes along with their biotechnological and therapeutic applications. It delves into the chemistry, diversity, and functions of these fishes and also discusses their biology and ecology aspects. Bioluminescence, which is a type of chemiluminescence and is a "cold living light," is seen in a wide variety of organisms from bacteria to fish. The chemicals and circumstances involved in marine bioluminescence are studied by biologists and engineers to make use of this phenomenon for biotechnological, commercial, and...
