摘要：

The spectral transmittance of the isolated rat lens for radiation of wavelengths from 300 to 700 nm was measured using a spectrophotometer. Transmittance decreased from 93-95% at 700 nm, to 70-80% at 400 nm, 50-60% at 360 nm, 4-18% at 320 nm, and to < 2% at 310-300 nm. These results indicate that the rat lens is remarkably transparent for UVA radiation, which has consequences for rat vision, and for interpretation of earlier studies on retinal light damage.
