Sensitive Low-Light-Level Microspectrophotometer: Detection of Photosensitive Pigments of Retinal Cones
Abstract
A microspectrophotometer of exceptional sensitivity has been constructed to record absorption spectra of visual pigments in single cells using minimum light. With this equipment, pigments of individual cones have been recorded in regions of less than 1 μ radius, with minimum bleaching. The instrument is simple and flexible in design, and uses commercially available components throughout. This paper reviews some general design considerations, the character and performance of our equipment, and some of the results obtained with retinal cones.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
