Frequency responses of human magnetophosphene perception thresholds during dark adaptation point to rod modulation [PDF]
Magnetophosphenes are flickering lights perceived when an extremely low frequency magnetic field generates a sufficiently strong electric field in the head.

Determination of Fv/Fm from Chlorophyll a Fluorescence without Dark Adaptation by an LSSVM Model [PDF]
Evaluation of photosynthetic quantum yield is important for analyzing the phenotype of plants. Chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChlF) has been widely used to estimate plant photosynthesis and its regulatory mechanisms.

Shedding light on dark adaptation. [PDF]
The retina is famous for its ability to operate under a broad range of light intensities. This is partly due to the presence of two types of photoreceptor cells, rods and cones. Rods are used mostly for dim light vision, and cones are used for bright light and colour vision. These cells are also able to adapt to a broad range of light intensities using

The recovery of rod responsiveness after saturating flashes is greatly retarded above a certain critical level of rhodopsin bleaching (approximately 0.1%). A mathematical description of the process of turn-off of the phototransduction cascade allows attributing different phases of the recovery to specific products of rhodopsin photolysis.

Lightmasks that prevent dark adaptation for non-central diabetic macular oedema: the CLEOPATRA RCT
Background: Hypoxia may contribute to the development and progression of diabetic macular oedema (DMO) and diabetic retinopathy. The photoreceptors are the most metabolically active cells in the retina and the rod photoreceptors consume the maximal ...

DARK ADAPTATION IN AGRIOLIMAX [PDF]
A method is described which measures the excitation of Agriolimax by light, during the progress of light adaptation, by assuming that the orientating effect of continuous excitation is expressed as a directly proportionate tension difference in the orienting muscles of the two sides of the body.
