✦ Synopsis

In the early 1980s the two authors, together with Professor Eric Schram (then at Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium), met several times with representatives of John Wiley & Sons, UK, with a view to persuading them to start the publication of a journal covering the areas of bioluminescence (BL) and chemiluminescence (CL). Previously these topics had been published in a disperse manner in biological and chemistry journals. Also there was a growing understanding of the topics, as well as a widening range of applications, including some that provided ultrasensitive detection at nanomolar levels for some analytes. The aim of the new journal was to provide a forum for work on both the fundamental and applied aspects of bioluminescence and chemiluminescence. Plans for the journal, which started life as The Journal of Bioluminescence and Chemiluminescence (abbreviated as J Biolumin Chemilumin), were finally completed in 1985 and the first issue was published in June 1986.
