title: [Ultra-weak luminescence of serum and urine of bone tumor patients].
abstract: The ultra-weak luminescence intensity of serum and urine of 47 cases of bone tumor patients and 17 normal persons are measured by a BPCL-type single-photon ultra-weak luminescence counter. The results showed that the preoperative serum luminescence intensity of the patients was 617.1 +/- 565.5 photon/200 secs and that of urine was 661.8 +/- 283.4, while the serum luminescence intensity of normal group was 236.7 +/- 66 and that of urine was 479.5 +/- 262.8 (P < 0.05). The post-operative serum luminescence intensity of patients was 415.8 +/- 186.6 and that of urine was 311.5 +/- 163.5. The urine luminescence intensity significantly decreased after operation (P < 0.05). The luminescence intensities of serum and urine of bone tumor patients were higher than those of the normal subjects (P < 0.05). The spectrum showed a blueshift with two peaks at 575nm and 665 nm.
