ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method of increasing the duration of detectable photon emission of a luciferase-luciferin reaction. The method provides a luciferase-luciferin reaction in which photon emission can be detected for up to and including eight hours. A method of the present invention can also be used to detect the presence of luciferase in biological samples. The present, invention also provides a composition used in detecting the presence of luciferase in biological samples.
