Van Dyke K., Van Dyke C., Woodfork K. (Eds.) Luminescence Biotechnology: Instruments and Applications

CRC Press, 2002. - 621 p. - The dangers and drawbacks inherent in radioactivity-based methods along with a demonstrated and dramatic increase in sensitivity have precipitated a major shift towards luminescence measurements and visualization techniques. Their use has now spread even to traditional clinical environments, and their applications have grown from clinical assays to DNA sequencing, antioxidant detection, and high-throughput screening.
