Chemiluminescence of the mouse liver after injection of glucose

The spectral composition of radiation from the mouse liver was studied in situ after intravenous injection of various doses of glucose. A statistically significant ultraviolet component-mitogenetic radiation-appeared after injection of 15 mg glucose. Only visible radiation was recorded after smaller or larger doses. The results are evidence of the role of unbalanced molecular constellations in the regulation of hepatocyte metabolism.
