Effect of background illumination on the retinal action potential

K I NAKA et al. Science. .

Abstract

A study of the relation between the membrane potential and the amplitude of the slow component of the retinal action potential obtained from inside a single insect photoreceptor cell suggests that the slow component is equivalent to the change in the membrane potential caused by background illumination.
