The spatial structure of color cell receptive fields is controversial. Here, spots of light that selectively modulate one class of cones (L, M, or S, or loosely red, green, or blue) were flashed in and around the receptive fields of V-1 color cells to map the spatial structure of the cone inputs. The maps generated using these cone-isolating stimuli and an eye-position-corrected reverse correla...

PURPOSE To investigate whether cysts in diabetic macular edema are better visualized in the red channel of color fundus camera images, as compared with the green channel, because color fundus camera screening methods that emphasize short-wavelength light may miss cysts in patients with dark fundi or changes to outer blood retinal barrier. METHODS Fundus images for diabetic retinopathy photosc...

The genetic basis of color polymorphism is explored in the pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Homoptera: Sternorrhyncha), in which two color morphs have been described (pink or green). Laboratory crosses and a Mendelian genetic analysis reveal that color polymorphism in pea aphids is determined by a single biallelic locus, which we name colorama, with alleles P and p, pink being dominant ...

Subwavelength gratings with electroactive polymers such as poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene-phenylene) (P(ProDOT-Ph)) controlled the color intensity for various visible colors of diffracted light in a single device. Under the illumination of a white light, at a fixed angle of incidence, the color intensity of the diffracted light was reversibly switched from th...

A 53-year-old-man with prostate cancer underwent prostate brachytherapy one month ago. Since then, he has experienced increased urinary frequency, dysuria, perineal discomfort, reduced urinary stream velocity, and nocturia. The patient was prescribed the following medications to relieve his urinary frequency and dysuria: sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, ciprofloxacin, tamsulosin, methylprednisolo...

Using 24 observers with normal color vision, perceived shifts in hue were determined for a yellow-red, green, and blue-green at intermittencies of 5, 10, and 20 cps. The hue shift for yellow-red was consistent with the hue shift exhibited by a deuteranomalous observer while the hue shift for green and blue-green was consistent with that exhibited by a protanomalous observer.

OBJECTIVE To show true color scanning laser ophthalmoscope (SLO) images produced by simultaneously imaging the retina with red, green, and blue lasers. METHODS Low-power red, green, and blue lasers were combined using fiber optics. By rapidly pulsing the lasers, each point on the fundus is illuminated by the 3 colors in quick succession, with the total power level being similar to that from a...

The development of discolored urine may have many possible causes. Here we present the case of a 76-year-old woman who was admitted after ingesting the inorganic herbicides, mefenacet and imazosulfuron. Her urine color changed to green almost immediately. Since the patient had no specific medication or medical history we considered that the most likely cause of the change in urine color was the...

We propose a design for an electrochemically driven RGB dye based on a tristable [2]catenane, in which the color of the molecule can be switched between Red, Green, and Blue by merely changing voltage. Based on DFT calculations, we conclude that the tristable [2]catenane should consist of a CBPQT4+ ring interlocked with a polyether macrocyle containing DNP (red), TTF (green), and FBZD (blue) un...

the effects of different stages of maturity (mature green, until 20 to 40% of change in color), two treatments of cool water (5 ?c for 5' and 10 ?c for 15min.), two treatments of hot water (50 ?c for 15 min. and 55 ?c for 5 min.) ), two temperatures (10 and 14 °c) of storage vs. six time periods (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 days) on shelf life and storage time of ‘langra’ mango fruit were stud...
