Abstract
Ultra-weak, non-termal photon emission is universal feature of living organisms and plants. In our experiment the fine structure of optical radiation emitted by the loach fish eggs is studied. It was shown earlier that such radiation performs the signaling between the distant fish egg samples, which result in significant correlations of their growth. The optical radiation of biological sample was measured by the cooled photomultiplier in photocurrent regime, it was found that the main bulk of radiation is produced in form of short-time quasi-periodic bursts. The analysis of radiation temporal structure indicates that the information about egg age and growth is encoded via the values of time intervals between neighbor bursts with the height higher than some fixed level. The applications of such biological radiation in medical diagnostics and biotechnology are considered.
Highlights
The systematic study of optical and soft UV radiation emitted by living bio-systems continues for more than thirty years [1, 2]; its existence is established for different biological species [3, 4]
The detailed mechanism of bio-photon production (BP) is still studied, yet it acknowledged that such optical excitations are stipulated mainly by the biochemical reactions, in which oxygen atoms are bound to the proteins and organic acids [2, 3]
If those conclusions will be confirmed by further experiments, it would mean that the main encoding algorithm for fish eggs radiation has the analogue realization, despite that the produced signal is constituted by the sequence of discrete bursts
Summary
The systematic study of optical and soft UV radiation emitted by living bio-systems continues for more than thirty years [1, 2]; its existence is established for different biological species [3, 4]. Being radiated by the growing organism or plant and absorbed by the similar one at the distance about several cm, it can rise the rate of cell division (mitosis) in it up to 30% relative to the standard values. This phenomenon called mitogenetic effect (ME) is extensively studied in the last years [2, 3].
