Abstract: | A method of electroretinogram c-wave recording in the rat was developed that uses a contact lens electrode connected through a saline bridge with a silver-silver chloride half-cell. A cluster of light-emitting diodes, regulated by an electronic light-emitting diode stimulator, was used as a light source. The method enables recordings of c-waves of 0.4–1.6 mV amplitude as well as other electroretinogram components in narrow limits of variation. The two main sources of response variability are voltage shunting and eyeball protrusion. |
