Abstract
Bovine eyes were conserved under donor eye conditions in a moist chamber for 48 h. Metabolite levels of glucose, fructose, glucose (glycogen) were determined in corneal epithelium and aqueous humour at certain times by enzymatic optical tests. The role of fructuse and glycogen as a nutrient metabolite responsible for the transparency and structure of the cornea is discussed.Entities:
