摘要: In this chapter, our studies focused on techniques and instrumentation for highly sensitive precise determination of biophotons through imaging their applications, investigated from various viewpoints, are discussed. Applications based these introduced over a range subjects, the level microbes to that humans. Although detailed mechanisms biophoton emission in each case have not yet been clarified sufficiently, experimental results here show high potential analyzing quantification physiological pathological information. The most valuable merit is it apparently non-invasive technique, cannot be influenced same way as other methods use extrinsic physical probes. However, weakness intensity biophoton, which may restrict its application, requires breakthrough analytical technique. sense, I believe technologies analysis could form basis novel stage research. particular, statistical characterization with spatiotemporal will provide approach by biological order emerged interaction reactions can characterized, even when photon density very low.
