Incandescence

Incandescence refers to the emission of visible light from a heated solid or liquid surface.
This phenomenon occurs when materials are heated to a high temperature, causing the atoms to vibrate and release photons of energy.
Incandescence is an important concept in various fields, including lighting, materials science, and astronomy.
It plays a crucial role in the design and optimization of lighting systems, the study of high-temperature materials, and the understanding of stellar and planetary processes.
Researchers in these areas often face challenges in locating and comparing the best protocols from literature, preprints, and patents to enhance the reproducibility and accuracy of their incandescence research.

The life cycle of a Puerto Rican strain of Schistosoma mansoni (S. mansoni) was maintained in outbred NMR-I mice and Biomphalariaglabrata snails. Infective cercariae were obtained following exposure of snails with a patent infection to incandescent light for 2 h to induce the release of the parasites. Cercarial E/S products were produced as described previously [1 (link),3 (link),7 (link)]. Briefly, culture supernatants containing the 0–3 hour released preparation (0-3hRP) were collected (ensuring whole larvae and parasite tails were discarded), and stored at −20°C until required. Pooled supernatants were concentrated using filter spin columns with a molecular weight cut off of 3 kDa (GE Life Sciences) and the protein content measured using the BCA® protein assay (Thermo Scientific).

The chickens used in this study were divergently selected from a population of Bresse-Pile (meat-type) chickens by Ricard [23 (link), 38 (link)] for an extreme difference in body weight at two ages: 8 (juvenile) and 36 (adult) weeks of age (wk). Chickens were bred and raised at INRA UE1295 Pôle d’Expérimentation Avicole de Tours, F-37380, Nouzilly, France. At hatching, HG and LG cockerels were wing-banded and vaccinated against Marek’s disease virus. Birds were provided with ad libitum access to water and fed a conventional starter ration (22% crude protein and 3050 kcal ME/kg) from hatching to 3 wk and then with a grower pelleted ration from 3 to 11 wk. (20% crude protein, and 3100 kcal). The HG birds were separated from LG birds for the first 3 weeks (at which time LG chickens were provided crushed feed pellets) to increase early survival of the LG; afterwards, both lines were placed together and raised in floor pens (4.4 m × 3.9 m). Continuous incandescent light was provided for the first two days followed by a maintenance of a 14 h light /10 h dark cycle (14 L:10D). Infrared gas heaters provided supplemental heat and the ambient temperature was decreased progressively from 32 °C at hatching, until 22 °C was reached at 22 days. At 1, 3 5, 7, 9 and 11 wk, eight fed cockerels from each genetic line (HG and LG) were randomly selected, weighed and bled into heparinized syringes prior to cervical dislocation, and the excision and weighing of abdominal fat mass. Abdominal adipose tissue samples were immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at −75° C until further processing for RNA analysis.

Red oak leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa) was grown with adjustments made to the height of the growth boxes so that each treatment received similar light intensity in addition to the consistent height, variable intensity setup previously described (Ravishankar et al., 2021 (link)). Eight lettuce plants from each treatment were harvested at 21 days post germination (transplant stage) and the remaining eight plants from each treatment at 35 days post germination (harvest stage). Four plants from each harvest per box were used for biomass measurements, while the remaining four were used for tissue sampling. Tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum cv. Moneymaker) were grown under these conditions with modifications. Seeds were sown on rockwool and germinated in the same growth chamber with metal halide and incandescent lighting to approximate natural sunlight. Eight seedlings of uniform size and age were selected and transplanted into individual blocks of larger rockwool and moved inside the treatment boxes with nearly 100% OSC roof coverage. Tomato plants were harvested after flowering, 30 days past the two-leaf stage when plants were moved under the filters.
The growth boxes were covered with either an OSC filter, a clear glass or a shaded control on top to simulate a greenhouse roof. The positions of the rockwool blocks were rotated to avoid positional light effects as in the lettuce experiment. The consistent light intensity between treatments allowed for comparison of the influence of the light spectra on plant physiology. The results of these experiments were compared to the previously reported experimental design where all filters were positioned at a consistent height to model the roof of a greenhouse and therefore produce different TPFD due to the differences in filter transmission. Five replications of the lettuce experiment with consistent light intensity were conducted. One replication was conducted of both tomato experiments, using consistent and variable light intensity. Lettuce light conditions were measured as previously reported. Reported percent colors for tomato were measured using a spectrophotometer (Black Comet-SR, Stellar Net, Inc., USA) except the high light control treatment, which was assumed to have the percent colors of the low light control. PPFD was measured using a quantum sensor (LI-190R, LI-COR, Inc., USA) and TPFD was calculated from PPFD and percent colors.

In this study, Rhodopseudomonas palustris (NCIMB 1774) was used as model organism. Cells were precultured in Van Niels medium—a fast-growing medium containing (per 1 L): 1 g K2HPO4, 0.5 g MgSO4, 10 g yeast extract and the balance deionised water (du Toit and Pott 2021 (link)). After autoclaving (121 °C, 20 min), 10 mL of sterile glycerol (4 M) was added to the medium aseptically (du Toit and Pott 2021 (link)). Bacterial cells were suspended in the medium and grown anaerobically in 500 mL Schott bottles under argon atmosphere. Temperature was maintained at 35 °C (± 0.2 °C) and light intensity was calibrated to 200 W m−2 (± 20 W m−2) in the wavelength range of 500–1100 nm (tungsten filament incandescent light, Eurolux©, South Africa) (Bosman et al. 2022a (link)) using a handheld spectrophotometer (RGB Photonics, Qmini VIS–NIR). Culturing time was approximately five days to allow cells to reach the mid-logarithmic phase.
All growth and hydrogen production experiments were conducted using a Rhodospirillaceae medium containing (per 1 L): 0.6 g K2HPO4, 1.7 g KH2PO4, 0.02 g MgSO4·7H2O, 0.005 g CaCl2·2H2O, 0.4 g NaCl, 0.3 g Na2S2O3, 0.0005 g ferric citrate, 0.0002 g para-aminobenzoic acid, and 1 mL of trace element solution containing (per 1 L): 70 mg ZnCl2, 100 mg MnCl2·4H2O, 60 mg H3BO3, 200 mg CoCl2·6H2O, 20 mg CuCl2·2H2O, 20 mg NiCl2·6H2O, and 40 mg NaMoO4·2H2O (Pott et al. 2014 (link)). The medium was autoclaved (121 °C, 20 min) and the pH measured at 7.2. Also aseptically added to the medium after autoclaving was a vitamin solution containing (per 1 L): 1.2 g thiamine HCl and 0.01 g cyanocobalamin (filter-sterilized), and lastly 10 mL of 5 M sterile glycerol (final concentration of 50 mM) and 5 mL of sterile glutamic acid (final concentration of 10 mM) were added to the medium aseptically (Pott et al. 2014 (link)).

These experiments were conducted in Davis, CA, June-August, 2022. Seeds were germinated and grown for 3 weeks in a PGV36 growth chambers (Conviron, Winnipeg, MB, Canada) as described above, at which point they were transferred to a field site. Before the start of anthesis plants were transferred to either a PGV36 or a PGR15 growth chamber (Conviron, Winnipeg, MB, Canada) for either 2 days for LL|28°C and Control A plants, or 1 week for jet lag and Control B plants. Controls were maintained in chambers with light, temperature, and humidity cycling in coordination with the local average daily forecast for the following week. Constant light plants were maintained at a constant 28°C, with 300 μmol m–2 s–1 provided by metal halide and incandescent lamps. Jet lagged plants were entrained to the same conditions as the control plants but with a 3 hr phase delay. Plants were transferred to the field just before anthesis of the second or third pseudowhorl, just after dawn in the case of the constant light experiment and 1 hour before dawn for the jet lag experiment. In the jet lag experiments, florets that had opened on previous days were removed with forceps to limit the pollinator recruitment signals to florets developing on the day of the experiment. Pots were arranged so the capitula faced east and stems were secured to bamboo poles for imaging. Images were taken at 5 min intervals using BirdCam 2.0 cameras (Wingscapes). Pollinator visits were scored using ImageGlass (https://imageglass.org/). Any insect large enough to be seen in the images was counted. New visits were counted when an insect landed on or changed location on the disk florets. The first image in which pollen was visible on the tip of the stamen was scored for time of pollen presentation. All data was plotted in R using ggplot (Wickham, 2016 (link)) and tidyverse (Wickham et al., 2019 (link)).

Sunflower seeds of HA412 HO (USDA ID: PI 603993) genotype were planted into small pots of soil (Sunshine Mix #1, Sun Gro Horticulture) and germinated with a plastic lid in a PGV36 growth chamber (Conviron, Winnipeg, MB, Canada) at 25°C with 16 hr light (provided by metal halide and incandescent lamps, 300 μmol m–2 s–1) and 8 hr darkness per day. Plants were watered with nutrient water containing an N-P-K macronutrient ratio of 2:1:2. Two weeks after sowing, seedlings were transplanted to 2-gallon pots with 1 scoop of Osmocote fertilizer (SMG Brands). Approximately 60 days after sowing, sunflower capitula entering anthesis in their first pseudowhorl were transferred to an PGR15 growth chamber (Conviron, Winnipeg, MB, Canada; 200 μmol m–2 s–1 provided by metal halide and incandescent lamps) to image floret development under the indicated environmental conditions. Transfer to experimental conditions occurred at ZT 0. Sunflower stalks and capitula were taped to bamboo stakes (to avoid capitulum moving out of the camera frame). Raspberry Pi NoIR V2 cameras were mounted on Raspberry Pi 3 model B computers (Raspberry Pi, Cambridge, UK); cameras were fitted with LEE 87 75×75 mm2 infrared (IR) filters (Lee Filters, Andover, England). Computers were programmed to take a photo every 15 min. Infrared LEDs (Mouser Electronics, El Cajon, CA, USA) were programmed to flash during image capture so that the capitula were visible in the dark without disrupting plant growth. Sunflowers were imaged immediately upon transfer to experimental conditions, and through anthesis of all florets in the capitulum. The 15 min interval images were analyzed sequentially in a stack on ImageJ (Schneider et al., 2012 (link)). For each image, the ovaries, stamens, and styles were scored for a change in size from the previous image. Ovary growth was seen as corolla tube swelling above the immature capitulum surface (Figure 1E-G). Late-stage anther filament elongation was observed starting from when the corolla tube cracked open to reveal the stamen tube until its full extension above the corolla surface (Figure 1D – II, 1G). Late-stage style elongation was observed starting with the visible extrusion of pollen out of the top of the anther tube and ending with the style fully extended (Figure 1D – III, 1G). Organs were classified as growing when >5% of the florets in a pseudowhorl showed a change in length in one time-lapse image relative to the previous one. Growth was measured qualitatively as active or inactive.
