Rhodopsin kinetics in the human eye

1. Rhodopsin has been measured by Rushton's method of reflexion densitometry in a retinal region 18° temporal to the fovea, using a wavelength of measuring light (555 nm) so far into the long wave part of the spectrum that possible blue absorbing intermediates (e.g. transient orange) do not interfere.
