Hidden in plain sight: hyperspectral documentation of complex biofluorescence produced by the green sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis).
Methods and Applications in Fluorescence 2024 January 27
Biofluorescence in echinoderms is largely unexplored and even though the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis is a well-studied species, the presence and/or function of fluorescence remains very poorly understood. Hyperspectral imaging was conducted on mature sea urchins (N=380) while fluorospectrometric analysis was conducted on sea urchin coelomic fluid (N=30). Fluorescence was documented in both the spines and coelomic fluid of S. droebachiensis. Intact spines exhibited a low intensity green emission (~550-600 nm), while broken spines averaged a high emission peak in the green spectrum (~580 nm). Sea urchins produce a red exudate with a pronounced emission peak (~680 nm) with a shoulder peak (~730 nm). The sampled coelomic fluid exhibited high variability, with a majority exhibiting a low-level green fluorescence while pronounced emission peaks (N=5) were found in the red spectrum (~680 nm). The complex fluorescence produced by S. droebachiensis warrants further investigation on its applicability for monitoring welfare of sea urchins in aquaculture facilities.
