Table 2. Data set I consisting of rods and rhodopsins.
Data are taken from Luo et al. [2], which are measured/obtained at 23°C, and from Ala-Laurila et al. [9] at 21°C. It can be simply shown that the difference between measurements at these two temperatures is trivial and does not affect the values.
