Human cone spectral sensitivities: a progress report
The spectral sensitivities of the short (S-), middle (M-) and long (L-) wave-sensitive cones have been measured in normal trichromats and in dichromats and monochromats of known genotype. For the S-cone sensitivities, three blue-cone monochromats and five normals were used; for the M-cone sensitivities, nine protanopes (three with a single L1M2 gene, three with a single L2M3 gene, one with both...
متن کاملCone spectral sensitivities and color matching
The eye’s optics form an inverted image of the world on the dense layer of light-sensitive photoreceptors that carpet its rear surface. There, the photoreceptors transduce arriving photons into the temporal and spatial patterns of electrical signals that eventually lead to perception. Four types of photoreceptors initiate vision: The rods, more effective at low light levels, provide our nightti...
متن کاملSpectral sensitivities of the human cones.
Transient chromatic adaptation produced by an abrupt change of background color permits an easier and closer approach to cone isolation than does steady-state adaptation. Using this technique, we measured middle-wave-sensitive (M)-cone spectral sensitivities in 11 normals and 2 protanopes and long-wavelength-sensitive (L-) cone spectral sensitivities in 12 normals and 4 deuteranopes. Although t...
متن کاملElectrophysiological measurements of spectral sensitivities: a review.
Spectral sensitivities of visual systems are specified as the reciprocals of the intensities of light (quantum fluxes) needed at each wavelength to elicit the same criterion amplitude of responses. The review primarily considers the methods that have been developed for electrophysiological determinations of criterion amplitudes of slow-wave responses from single retinal cells. Traditional flash...
متن کاملDifferent phosphorylation rates among vertebrate cone visual pigments with different spectral sensitivities.
Cone photoreceptor subtypes having different spectral sensitivities exhibit different recovery kinetics in their photoresponses in some vertebrates. Phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) is essential for the rapid inactivation of light-activated visual pigment, which is the rate-limiting step of the cone photoresponse recovery in salamander. In this study we compared the ra...
