  • Title: [Rhodopsin photo-oxidation: oxygen consumption and spectrum of activity].
    Author: Starostin AV, Fedorovich IB, Ostrovskiĭ MA.
    Journal: Biofizika; 1988; 33(3):452-5. PubMed ID: 3262376.
    Abstract:
    The coincidence of action spectrum of SH-groups and lipid oxidation is shown in the photoreceptor photodamaging process. Dose dependence of the process is measured in the maximum of photooxidation (380 nm). Dose of 0.1 J/cm2 is the threshold of photodamaging of photoreceptor membrane. Oxygen consumption in photooxidation of rhodopsin SH-groups and lipids are determined.
