What role does the melanopic energy of Spectrasol lighting play in supporting the circadian system and cognitive performance?

Spectrasol lighting has a balanced energy in the so-called melanopic region (460─500 nm), which is very important for the proper functioning of the circadian rhythm. This feature of the spectral distribution of the electric light source is protected by our first patent. In terms of the physiology of the eye, the so-called intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which contain the photopigment melanopsin that exclusively absorbs cyan energy with a maximum at 480 nm, play a role. These cells are basically a signal transducer between the external environment and the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the brain, which control and regulate biological processes in the body according to the time of day (day/night). These wavelengths are essential for alertness, cognitive performance, daytime activity and sleep quality. Read more here: https://www.spectrasol.eu/pro-cognitive-effectiveness/
