People and other living creatures emit a weak visible light that disappears after death, lists a new study. TASR reports on the basis of the articles of The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters and Science Alert.
Scientific progress is constantly bringing new interesting knowledge. According to recent research, the phrase “You really shine today” is not only a metaphor, but a reality. The attempt on mice and leaves of two plant species revealed evidence of the existence of photons emitted by all living organisms, including humans.
At first glance, the results of the study may be doubtful, and it is difficult to prevent the feeling of association of biological electromagnetic emissions with refuted paranormal claims about Aura and discharges surrounding living organisms, writes Science Alert.
According to the portal, the light of the visible length emitted by biological processes should be so weak that it should simply swipe the electromagnetic waves present in the environment and the heat emitted by the body, its accurate monitoring throughout the body should be demanding. Nevertheless, the authors of the study claim that they have been able to follow it and that the ultraslab’s photon emission (UPE) in living organisms is significantly stronger than the dead.
The study was worked out by scientists from the University of Calgary and the Canadian National Research Council (CNRC). Its results 24.
A strong candidate for the UPE source is the effect of various reactive oxygen types produced by living cells in case of exposure to stressors such as heat, poisons, pathogens or nutrient deficiency. The ability to remotely monitor the stress of individual tissues in the bodies of humans, animals or plants would be a powerful diagnostic and research tool for healthcare professionals or zootechnics.
Scientists have used the cartridge -bound components (CCDs) multiplying electrons and cameras with CCD to compare UPE in the living and subsequently dead mice. They tried to find out whether it is possible to extend the monitoring of emissions from individual tissues to whole living subjects.
At an attempt, four immobilized mice were captured in a dark chamber, which they then spent and captured another hour. During the posthumous shooting, they warmed them to body temperature to eliminate the distortion caused by cooling. The results of the experiment have shown a significant decrease in the amount of photons of visible light emitted by mice after death.
In addition to mice, scientists used the leaves of two plant species – Arabic Talian (Arabidopsis Thaliana) and the tree chicks (Heptapleurum Arboricola) and recorded equally interesting results. Stressing plant leaves by injury or chemicals has provided strong evidence in favor of the theory that reactive oxygen types may be related to UPE. “Our results show that the injured parts of all leaves shone over 16 hours of shooting significantly stronger than those unharmed,“Says researchers.
Thus, the results of the study give the hope that scientific progress can one day make it possible to say whether people shine with health literally and not just metaphorically.
