The fluorescence of biological materials also opens up a new field of action for fluorescent waveguides. Fluorescent proteins, used in luminescent plates or films, could serve as a reference and standard for measuring fluorescence in biological materials. Indeed, integrating proteins into solid waveguides enables these materials to retain their chemical and physical properties for longer. The matrix improves the resistance of biological material, which is normally constrained under the light beam when analyzed directly. Indeed, the beam can heat up, alter or burn the biological material
