Kraft, Schneeweis & Schnapf (1993) human rod suction electrode recordings

Data key

Columns

1. Wavelength (nm)
2. log rod spectral sensitivity

Notes

Mean data from Table 1 of Kraft, Schneeweis & Schnapf (1993). n, the number of records averaged together, varies from 1 to 12 depending on wavelength.

Suction electrode (current) recordings made with a light beam passing transversely through human rod outer segments.

The λ_max value is ~495 nm.
