#LesAnimauxFantastiques Les chercheurs du @CNRS, tout #Moldus qu'ils sont, font parfois de drôles de rencontres.
Ici : #Calamar du #Pacifique capable d'émettre de la lumière. #Lumos
Magie ou science ? Ce calamar utilise en fait une enzyme spécifique le rendant capable de #bioluminescence. Les chercheurs étudient le fonctionnement de ce phénomène pour pouvoir le reproduire dans nos sociétés et peut-être réaliser demain un éclairage sans électricité, plus économe et non toxique ! ***********
Magic or science? A squid using bioluminescence to hide from its predators. Scientists are studying the mechanisms of bioluminescence in animals like this one to find new ecological ways to produce light.

A protein found in a squid’s arms with unusual properties could be used to produce a sustainable material that is elastic, flexible and strong.
The Squid Ring Teeth (SRT) protein, naturally occurring in squids, can be made in the lab using a fermentation-like process using sugars, water and oxygen. The bio-inspired polymer that results can be used as an abrasion-resistant coating for clothing to reduce microfiber erosion in washing machines, which is a major cause of plastic microfiber pollution.
The SRT protein is also ‘self-healing’, meaning that clothes could self-repair tiny damages.
Scientists from Penn State University believe that ‘squid ring-teeth based materials are an excellent alternative to plastics because they are eco-friendly and environmentally sustainable’.
How else could the natural world inspire us?
Is there a name for the specialized scales? Anyone know?
EDIT: they are called comb scales. Thank you @brettfong

This week’s biomimicry artifact highlight is a local organism: the Cholla cactus. Shown here is the “bone” structure (not visible when alive), that provides stabilization through hollow cylindrical struts joined at trusses. This unique design allows for maximum support with minimum materials. Have you seen a Cholla in the desert
