Color and Color Separation. In 1860,James Clerk MaxweU discovered that all visible colors could be matched by appropriate combinations of three primary colors, red, green, and blue (RGB). His experiment involved mixtures of colored lights added together to produce other colors or white light. This additive color is weU represented by the primaries RGB. Indeed, human color vision is trichromatic, ie, human visual response approximates receptors for the colors recognized as red, green, and blue (see Color). 

Color Vision Defects. Anomalous color vision is present, eg, if one of the three sets of cones is iaoperative (dichromacy) or defective (anomalous trichromacy). This affects 2—3% of the population with males mote prone because these defects reside on the X-chromosome, with one present ia males but two ia females. Eye specialists have standard tests for detecting these and other defects. Summaries of this whole field are available (6,9,22). 

Color-order systems, such as the many MunseU collections available from Macbeth, have been described previously. Essential for visual color matching is a color-matching booth. A typical one, such as the Macbeth Spectrahte, may have available a filtered 7500 K incandescent source equivalent to north-sky daylight, 2300 K incandescent illumination as horizon sunlight, a cool-white fluorescent lamp at 4150 K, and an ultraviolet lamp. By using the various illuminants, singly or in combination, the effects of metamerism and fluorescence can readily be demonstrated and measured. Every user should be checked for color vision deficiencies.

Health Hazards Information - Recommended Personal Protective Equipment Dust mask goggles or face shield protective gloves Symptoms Following Exposure inhalation of dust causes irritation of nose and throat. Ingestion may cause vomiting, salty taste, abdominal pain, diarrhea, convulsions, collapse, thirst, disturbed color vision, and acute toxic nephritis. Contact with eyes causes irritation. 

DISTUR0ED SENSORY PERCEPTION VISUAL. The patient taking chloroquine may experience a number of visual disturbances, such as disturbed color vision, blurred vision, night blindness, diminished visual fields, or optic atrophy. The nurse questions die patient about visual disturbances. 

Special senses—visual disturbances, blurred or diminished vision, diplopia, swollen or irritated eyes, photophobia, reversible loss of color vision, tinnitus, taste change, and rhinitis... 

The NSAIDs may cause visual disturbances. The nurse reports any complaints of blurred or diminished vision or changes in color vision to the primary health care provider. Corneal deposits and retinal disturbances may also occur. The primary health care provider may discontinue therapy if ocular changes are noted. Blurred vision may be significant and warrants thorough examination. 

The CIELAB system (1976) strictly standardizes the light source and the observer. CIE recommends three standard sources, A is an incandescent lamp, and B and C are lamps provided with different two-cell Davis-Gibson liquid hlters that simulate noon daylight and average daylight, respectively. Since the main object of the system is to obtain colorimetric results for normal tri-chromats (people with normal color vision), the standard observer must represent the human population with normal... 

All the analytical methods mentioned to separate, identify, and quantify chlorophylls and derivatives consume time, money, and samples. As alternatives, industries have been employing non-destructive methods for surface color measurements that are not only indirectly related to chlorophyll content, but may also estimate the pigments directly in tissues, leaving the sample intact and enabling serial analyses in a relatively short time. Eood color affects consumer acceptance and is an important criterion for quality control. Color vision is a complex phenomenon that depends on both the total content and number of pigments and also on absorption, reflectance and emission spectra of each compound present.

Transactions between plants and pollinators go back millions of years and vary greatly from species to species, but they all have certain features in common. A plant s goal is to coax pollinators to call upon its flowers, so the animal can both pick up local pollen grains and leave pollen it has brought from afar. To attract attention, plants advertise their presence with color and fragrance. Taking advantage of pollinators color vision, their flowers have... 

Signs of intoxication are (1) cardiac arrhythmias, which under certain circumstances are life-threatening, e.g., sinus bradycardia, AV-block, ventricular extrasystoles, ventricular fibrillation (ECG) (2) CNS disturbances — altered color vision (xanthopsia), agitation, confusion, nightmares, hallucinations (3) gastrointestinal — anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea (4) renal — loss of electrolytes and water, which must be differentiated from mobilization of accumulated edema fluid that occurs with therapeutic dosage. 

Two types of photoreceptor cell are found in the human retina—rods and cones. Rods are sensitive to low levels of light, while the cones are responsible for color vision at higher light intensities.
