摘要
The absolute and spectral sensitivities to light by the human cireadian system, measured through melatonin Suppression or phase shifting response, are beginning to emerge after a quarter century of active research. The present paper Outlines a hypothesized model of human circadian phototransduction that is consistent with the known neuroanatomy and physiology of the human Visual and circadian systems. Spectral opponency is fundamental to file model, providing a parsimonious explanation of some recently published data. The proposed model offers a framework for hypothesis testing and subsequent discussion Of file practical aspects of architectural lighting with respect to light and health. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V.
