Light Emission Requires Exposure to the Atmosphere in Ex Vivo Bioluminescence Imaging

The identification of organs bearing luciferase activity by in vivo bioluminescence imaging (BLI) is often difficult, and ex vivo imaging of excised organs plays a complementary role. This study investigated the importance of exposure to the atmosphere in ex vivo BLI. Mice were inoculated with murin...
