Spectra of ultraweak chemiluminescence (CL) accompanying auto-oxidation and hydration of cereal products have been measured using single photon counting and cut-off ®lters. The spectra cover the 380±880 nm spectral range with maxima centred around 600 nm. Analytically pure air-dried carbohydrates li

✦ Synopsis
Two-dimensional (2-D) spatial distributions of ultra-weak chemiluminescence (photon imaging) from auto-oxidizing and water-hydrated cereal food products were measured by means of a high-sensitivity 2-D photon counting systemÐan intensi®ed charge coupled device (CCD) camera. The 2-D images obtained reveal the dynamics and emission patterns of very slow auto-oxidation reactions and much faster processes of water penetration into cereal products. The enhancement of chemiluminescence by the addition of water appears to involve complex processes with an inhomogenous spatial and energy distribution within cereal products. The effect of antioxidants, free radical promoters and scavengers suggests that oxidative radical reactions contribute signi®cantly to the observed chemiluminescence. The possible involvement of hydrophilic interactions, H 2 O-biopolymers and recombination of trapped radicals is also discussed.
