Annals of the Entomological Society of America. 90 (3): 389–398. doi: 10.1093/aesa/90.3.389. Aposematism is a widely used function of bioluminescence, providing a warning that the creature concerned is unpalatable. It is suggested that many firefly larvae glow to repel predators; some millipedes glow for the same purpose. [58] Some marine organisms are believed to emit light for a similar reason. These include scale worms, jellyfish and brittle stars but further research is needed to fully establish the function of the luminescence. Such a mechanism would be of particular advantage to soft-bodied cnidarians if they were able to deter predation in this way. [33] The limpet Latia neritoides is the only known freshwater gastropod that emits light. It produces greenish luminescent mucus which may have an anti-predator function. [59] The marine snail Hinea brasiliana uses flashes of light, probably to deter predators. The blue-green light is emitted through the translucent shell, which functions as an efficient diffuser of light.

This adaptation allows the fish to see red-pigmented prey, which are normally invisible to other organisms in the deep ocean environment where red light has been filtered out by the water column. [71] The fish is able to utilize the longer wavelength to act as a spotlight for its prey that only it is able to see. [71] In addition to the utilization of the light for predation, it has been hypothesized that the fish use this to communicate with each other to find potential mates. [72] The ability of the fish to see this light is explained by the presence of specialized rhodopsin pigment. [71] The angler siphonophore ( Erenna), also utilizes red bioluminescence in appendages to lure fish. [73] Rich in nutrients such as calcium, iron, magnesium, zinc and vitamins A, K and E, it’s used effectively against inflammation and general irritations of the skin. Being very high in vitamin E, it acts as an emollient which traps moisture and keeps skin well hydrated. It also helps prevent sun damage to cells by ultraviolet light and aids against premature ageing of skin by protecting the collagen and elastin content of your beautiful complexion.

Naturally occurring water-binding ingredient, with the ability to absorb moisture from the air. It can also bind moisture to cells, and hold several times its weight in water. This will make your skin look and feel plump so that you feel confident in your complexion. In April 2020, plants were genetically engineered to glow more brightly using genes from the bioluminescent mushroom Neonothopanus nambi to convert caffeic acid into luciferin.
