2-(6'-Hydroxybenzothiazo1-2'-yl)-4-hydroxythiazole (firefly oxyluciferin) (III) has been suggested as the emitter in the firefly bioluminescence and also in the chemiluminescence of firefly luciferin (I) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) from the consideration of the proposed reaction mechanism, which in
## Abstract Firefly luciferase (EC 1.13.12.5) (FL) is the key enzyme in the firefly bioluminescence method (FB), which is widely used to determine the viability of living cells. The FB method can also be applied to monitoring the influence of different pollutants, such as pesticides. Firefly lucife
