Light enters the eye, is focused by the cornea, passes through the variable-diameter iris, is further focused by the lens, and strikes the light-sensitive receptors of the retina in the back of the eye. The photoreceptors of the retina can be divided into two basic categories: rods and cones. At normal light levels, cones dominate the initial response to light, resulting in photopic vision. Thr...

Secondary cutaneous amyloidosis refers to clinically unapparent amyloid deposits within the skin in association with a pre-existing skin condition or skin tumors, such as basal cell carcinoma, porokeratosis, solar elastosis, Bowen's disease, and mycosis fungoides. A 70-year-old woman presented with a 6-month history of asymptomatic multiple yellowish plaques on both legs. She had been diagnosed...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the physical-chemical and physiological changes during maturation fruits seeds P. peruviana determine best stage for harvesting in Brazillian semi-arid conditions. were collected at five stages based on color epicarp: 1: light green fruit; 2: yellowish-green; 3: yellow with area that connects calyx; 4: yellow; 5: yellowish-orange. Physical phy...

The fifth instar larva of the saturniid silkworm, Rhodinia fugax, is light yellowish-green on its dorsal surface and dark green on the ventral surface with a lateral demarcation between the two colours. The larva of R. fugax closely resembles the leaves of the host plant, Quercus serrata, in colour and shape. The spectral reflectance of the larval integument of R. fugax corresponds to that of t...

Poly(1,3,5-tris(N-carbazolyl)benzene) (PtnCz) and three copolymers based on 1,3,5-tris(N-carbazolyl)benzene (tnCz) and 2,2′-bithiophene (bTp) were electrochemically synthesized. The anodic P(tnCz1-bTp2) film with a tnCz/bTp feed molar ratio of 1/2 showed four colors (light orange at 0.0 V, yellowish-orange at 0.7 V, yellowish-green at 0.8 V, and blue at 1.1 V) from the neutral state to oxidized...

A red/green equilibrium light is one which appears neither reddish nor greenish (i.e. either uniquely yellow, uniquely blue, or achromatic). A subset of spectral and nonspectral red/green equilibria was determined for several luminance levels, in order to test whether the set of all such equilibria is closed under linear color-mixture operations. The spectral loci ofequilibrium yellow and blue ...

<p>The goal of this study is to discover a new method that uses standard phosphors and quantum dots improve the lighting qualities heat manipulation white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). Despite popularity as good ingredient offers color rendering properties, (QDs) have not been widely employed in fabrication WLEDs, particularly, utilization QDs-phosphor-mixed nanocomposite limited. We pro...

OBJECTIVE To report retinopathy following exposure to light from a commercially available class 3A green laser pointer. METHODS A 55-year-old woman with a ring melanoma was scheduled for enucleation. The eye (visual acuity 20/20) had a healthy-appearing macular retina. The retina was exposed to light from a commercially available class 3A green laser: 60 seconds to the fovea, 5 minutes to a s...

introduction: the unprotected eye is extremely sensitive to laser radiation and can be permanently damaged from direct or reflected beams. the area of the eye damaged by laser energy is dependent upon the wavelength of the incident laser beam, duration of exposure and tissue characteristics. this study aims to investigate the effect of intense green light from doubled frequency neodymium-doped ...

A yellow/blue equilibrium Iight is one which appears neither yellowish nor bluish (i.e. uniquely red, uniquely green, or achromatic). The spectral locus of the monochromatic greenish equilibrium (around 500 nm) shows little, if any, variation over a luminance range of .! log,, units. Reddish equilibria are extraspectral. involving mixtures of short-and long-wave light. Their wavelength composit...
