Spectral Sensitivity of Cones of the Monkey Macaca Fascicularis. Baylor et al. 1987
Phanith & Mathew
Breakdown into Vision Three classes of cones Microspectrophotometry (MSP) Direct photocurrent measurement Wavenumber = 1/λ
AIM
To build upon currently known cones spectral sensitivities by determining the sensitivities of
cones to a broader range of wavelengths.
Phototransduction

Measured responses to: 440 nm 500 nm 659 nm
Fractional bleaching f = 1 – e-I*A

2. Spectral Forms Principle of Univariance
Probability of photon absorption determined by wavelength
Amplitude and waveform of response independent of photon wavelength
2 Photon Response
What is the importance of the Principle of Univariance?
Principle of Univariance
Figure 1. Figure 2.
exponential saturation function:
r = rm(1-e-ki)
r = peak amplitude of the responserm = maximal amplitudei = flash photon density

exponential saturation function:
r = rm(1-e-k(λ)i)
r = peak amplitude of the responserm = maximal amplitudei = flash photon densityk(λ) = proportionality constant
