Effect of pH, ethanol concentration, and temperature on detection of quagga mussel (Dreissena bugensis) birefringence [PDF]
In the western United States, federal, state, and local agencies have engaged in extensive efforts to detect the presence of larval dreissenid mussels (veligers) in water bodies before such a presence becomes a full-scale infestation.

Birefringent optofluidic gratings
A set of parallel microfluidic channels behaving as a diffraction grating operating in the Raman-Nath regime has been fabricated and studied. The diffraction efficiency of such structure can be tuned by selecting a liquid with a particular refractive index and/or optical anisotropy.
