Weasilish Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 Kay, so I can't find any bio engineering topic, so I'm posting here. My question is, say if a scientist stuck luminol inside a person and made such happen so that when adrenaline was released, the luminol would bond with the adrenaline and cause blood to glow. Would it be entirely plausible? I know that a buffer would be needed to counter-act any sort of pH change in the blood. I've also heard that in order for the luminol to glow, hydroxide is needed; also, something happens to an iron molecule (it rips apart or something). Also, how would you write the luminol-adrenaline compound? Is C19H17N4O3 aight? Quote
