Fluid-activated biodegradable bioluminescent glowing apparatus, compositions, kits, methods, and systems

A glowing apparatus comprising:

• an outer membrane defining an impermeable container comprising a port, a sidewall defining an interior cavity, and a light transmitting portion;
• a permeable membrane or plug operable to close the port;
• and
• a bioluminescent composition that is contained in the interior cavity and operable to emit a bioluminescent light through the light transmitting portion when exposed to an activating fluid passed through the permeable membrane and into the interior cavity.

A glowing composition comprising:

• an enzyme, enzyme formula, or enzyme mixture;
• and
• a polymer capable of retaining an activating fluid under ambient conditions,
• the enzyme, enzyme formula, or enzyme mixture being mixable with the polymer to form a bioluminescent gel operable to emit a bioluminescent light when exposed to the activating fluid.

A glowing apparatus comprising:

• an outer membrane defining an impermeable container with an interior cavity and a light transmitting portion;
• a perforation in the outer membrane;
• and
• a bioluminescent composition that is contained in the interior cavity and operable to emit a bioluminescent light through the light transmitting portion when exposed to an activating fluid passed through the perforation in the outer membrane and into the interior cavity.

A glowing apparatus comprising:

• an outer membrane defining a permeable container comprising an interior cavity, a light transmitting portion, and a permeable portion operable to pass an activating fluid into the interior cavity through the outer membrane, the interior cavity comprising a first chamber, a second chamber, and opening between the first and second chambers, and the permeable portion being operable to pass an activating fluid into the first chamber;
• a water-blocking gel that is located in the first chamber;
• a bioluminescent composition that is located in the second chamber and operable to emit a bioluminescent light through the light transmitting portion when exposed to the activating fluid passed in the second chamber;
• the water-blocking gel being movable by the activating fluid when passing into the second chamber through the opening and expandable to seal one of the permeable portion and the opening after being exposed to the activating fluid.
