Quantifying the Distribution of Lactic Acid Dehydrogenase in the Corneal Epithelium With Oxygen Deprivation

Key Points

• The research aims to quantify lactic acid dehydrogenase distribution in the corneal epithelium under conditions of oxygen deprivation.
• Applied lactic acid dehydrogenase reactivity methods to measure enzyme activity.
• Investigated the effects of epithelial anoxia.
• Evaluated the oxygen transmissivity of an experimental contact lens material.
• Observed distinct enzyme distribution in corneal epithelium under oxygen-deprived conditions.
• Demonstrated varying reactivity linked to oxygen transmissivity qualities of contact lens materials.
