Painfully beautiful examples of glowing chemistry experiments.
Luminol was used in three experiments with increasing amount of peroxide. At the end, the reaction mixture was blown out of the bulb.
Cyalume light sticks were opened and used in a variety of experiments. The sticks include hydrogen peroxide, diphenyl oxalate, and a dye.
Yellow-green color light was obtained with a
1-chloro-9,10-bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene as a dye.
Red color was obtained by Rhodamine B.
Blue color was obtained by 9,10-diphenylanthracene.
Orange color was obtained by 5,12-bis(phenylethynyl) naphthacene.
Finally, a common glow-worm was filmed in nature. The yellow-green color of the glow-worm was caused by the oxidation of luciferin.
This is one experiment from a larger video collection available at:

The time where the chemicals in the flask made a huge explosion, I ended up laughing so hard for some reason
I ve heard that putting NaCl on Na metal produces chemiluminescence. Please do that.
3:27 is it not bioluminescence?
0:50
Close your eyes, imagine someone in the shitter, in a dark bathroom, with explosive diarrhea.
Wow, looks just like a witch's cauldron or similar CGI effect! And a couple of cuties in the video, too — bonus!
I wonder if someone someday could learn to make chemiluminescence commercially viable for more than just glow sticks.
hello you speck españi?
por favor hablen en castellano mi abuela imposible q estudie ingles

We finally managed to shoot the glow-worm in the nature.
