Validation of Automatic Measurement of Electroretinogram B- Wave Parameters after Elimination of Oscillatory Potentials
نویسنده
چکیده
ERGs were recorded under darkand light-adapted conditions from the corneal surface of C57BL/6J wild type mice, BALB/c wild type mice, 129/SvJ wild type mice and Large mice. The analytic steps for b-wave parameter measurement were to (a) use a low pass filter to eliminate the oscillatory potentials (Ops), (b) to detect the b-wave maximum, (c) to measure b-wave amplitude from the minimum of the unfiltered waveform to the filtered b-wave peak, (d) to measure b-wave implicit time from the time of flash onset to the b-wave peak. The b-wave parameters derived by this method were compared to results obtained from manual measurement of the original waveform.

Isolation of faster components in the electroretinogram and visually evoked response in man.
The electroretinogram (ERG) response evoked in man by intense illumination pre sents a series of oscillatory potentials super imposed on the b-wave." These oscillatory potentials are of clinical importance, since in the presence of certain diseases they are reduced or disappear prior to some changes of the aand b-waves. Measurement of the amplitude of the os cillatory potential is difficult,...
متن کاملCorrection: Dopamine D1 Receptors Regulate the Light Dependent Development of Retinal Synaptic Responses
Retinal synaptic connections and function are developmentally regulated. Retinal synaptic activity plays critical roles in the development of retinal synaptic circuitry. Dopamine receptors have been thought to play important roles in the activity-dependent synaptic plasticity in central nervous system. The primary goal of this study is to determine whether dopamine D1 receptor regulates the act...
متن کاملContribution of GABAa, GABAc and glycine receptors to rat dark-adapted oscillatory potentials in the time and frequency domain
Retinal oscillatory potentials (OPs) consist of a series of relatively high-frequency rhythmic wavelets, superimposed onto the ascending phase of the b-wave of the electroretinogram (ERG). However, the origin of OPs is uncertain and methods of measurement of OPs are diverse. In this study, we first isolated OPs from the rat ERG and fitted them with Gabor functions and found that the envelope of...
متن کاملmdxCv3 mouse is a model for electroretinography of Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy.
PURPOSE To identify an animal model for the abnormal scotopic electroretinogram found in a majority of Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy patients. METHODS Ganzfeld electroretinograms were recorded in dark-adapted normal C57BL/6 mice, and two strains of mice with different X-linked muscular dystrophy mutations (mdx and mdxCv3). Responses for the right eye were averaged and the amplitudes ...
