Rejection of the biophoton hypothesis on the origin of photoreceptor dark noise
Rod photoreceptors of the vertebrate retina produce, in darkness, spontaneous discrete current waves virtually identical to responses to single photons. The waves comprise an irreducible source of noise (discrete dark noise) that may limit the threshold sensitivity of vision. The waves obviously ori...
