摘要: The rhodopsin content of 20 eyes infants and children ages 27 weeks gestation to 8 years (11 donors) was assayed compared the adults (36 eyes; 19 donors). Infants have significantly lower contents than adults. On average young is about a third Previously reported full-field b-wave sensitivity 0.5 log units, that third, less Thus, as previously found in infant rats, photon capture by appears limit dark adapted human infants.
