Summary
In the isolated rabbit retina, application of azide produces a positive potential as was demonstrated in situ byNoell. The amplitude of this effect is about 1/5 to 1/10 of the amplitudes described in situ. The results support the assumption that the azide potential is produced partly in the pigment epithelium but to some extent also within the retina.
