Abstract: | A program for a programmable calculator is described which can predict the number of microscopically visible phagosomes at various times given data on the rate of uptake of radiolabeled outer segment material at these times. The phagosomes are assumed to be digested such that the number of visible phagosomes decays exponentially. The half-life of this decay can be varied in the calculations, and the results can be compared with actual phagosome counts. |
