Abstract

AbstractA simple, inexpensive, battery‐powered, portable luminometer which is based on a silicon photodiode is described. The instrument is intended to measure the light produced by chemiluminescent and bioluminescent reactions. The devic shows a good detection limit and, in a bioluminescent reaction for adenosine 5′‐triphosphate (ATP), detected 0.5 pmol in 1ml of aqueous solution. The instrument measures irradiance from 10−13 to 10−11 W cm−2 at the sensor, within the range 300 to 900nm.
