Bioluminescent algae’s blue light harnessed to make 3D-printed shapes
SMRTR summary
Scientists at the University of Colorado Boulder used acid to trigger sustained glowing in Pyrocystis lunula algae, then mixed them into a gel to 3D-print glowing shapes lasting up to 25 minutes. This living bioluminescent material could eventually replace battery-powered devices, reducing waste.
