Whole undiluted human blood was widely used by Alexander Gurwitsch to study the features and properties of mitogenetic radiation (MGR) - ultra-weak radiation in the UV range of the spectrum. In the course of these studies, several important discoveries were made. Unfortunately, the results of these, as well as many other works of Gurwitsch were almost completely forgotten. Due to wide application of photomultipliers starting from 1950-is it turned out that ultraweak photon emission (UPE) in the visible range of electromagnetic spectrum from living organisms is a fact. However according to the widely accepted point of view UPE is not considered as a biologically relevant factor, rather it is thought as a mere by-product of oxidative reactions with the participation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS themselves were claimed until recently only as dangerous pathological particles appearing as the result of defectiveness of aerobic metabolism. On the other hand, it was discovered many decades ago that such blood cells as neutrophils intensely generate ROS in the course of immune response and that this process is accompanied with UPE. This phenomenon is practically always studied using suspensions of isolated neutrophils and of other white blood cells because it is considered that optically dense erythrocytes should completely absorb all the photons. Taking into consideration that Gurwitsch studied MGR from non-diluted blood we used non-diluted human blood to evaluate if it may be the source of UPE and if UPE and the processes accompanied with UPE may play significant biological role. In some cases, to amplify the intensity of UPE from blood specific luminophores such as Lucigenin or Luminol were added to blood. Patterns of UPE from blood both under “resting” and artificially induced immune reaction revealed that blood is a continuous source of UPE indicating that it persists in electronically excited state. This state is pumped through generation of electron excitation produced in reactions with ROS participation. Excited state of blood is an oscillatory one suggesting of interaction between individual sources of electron excitation. This state is extremely sensitive to the tiniest fluctuations of external photonic fields but resistant to temperature variations as reflected in hysteresis of PE in response to temperature variations. We observed that samples of blood or suspensions of neutrophils isolated from it could interact with each other even if there was no chemical contact between them though the optical contact was provided. Besides even if a small part of photons from blood in which immune reaction was induced were reflected back by a semi-permeable mirror it affected the intensity of the immune reaction proceeding in blood. These data suggest that blood is a highly cooperative non-equilibrium and non-linear system, whose components unceasingly interact in time and space. At least in part this property is provided by the ability of blood to store energy of electron excitation that is produced in the course of its own normal metabolism. From a practical point of view analysis of these qualities of blood may be a basement of new approach to diagnostic procedures.
