We suggest that in the rat retina the monoclonal antibody OS-2 does not label cones containing the typical mammalian SWS photopigment. Rather, since the rat retina appears to lack such receptors, OS2 labels those receptors that contain a photopigment having a peak sensitivity in the UV.Deegan J.F. & Jacobs J.H.Mihail Bota
