Energy utilization of toad retina: A hydrogen-1 and phosphorus-31 NMR study
Vision is the most important of all human senses. Research concerning the physiology and biochemistry of components of the visual system can lead to advances in the prevention and treatment of diseases. Since the retina is part of the brain, studies of the retina can help provide information about …
