[The comparative characteristics of the electroretinograms of vertebrates evoked by light and x-ray stimulation under different conditions of adaptation].
Existence of two electrical responses specific for the X-rays and differing from the responses to red or blue light, was confirmed in the electroretinogram of the frog eye during darkness adaptation, monochromatic illumination as well as in response to paired stimuli in different combinations of red and blue light and the X-rays. The data obtained suggest the possibility of using roentgenophosphen as a test for determining of individual radiation sensitivity in humans.
