Portable light transmission measuring system for preserved corneas
BACKGROUND The authors have developed a small portable device for the objective measurement of the transparency of corneas stored in preservative medium, for use by eye banks in evaluation prior to transplantation. METHODS The optical system consists of a white light, lenses, and pinholes that collimate the white light beams and illuminate the cornea in its preservative medium, and an optical...
متن کاملA portable measuring system for robot calibration
Currently, much production time is lost in teaching and re-teaching robot programs. New techniques that avoid this, such as off-line programming, require an accurate kinematic model of the robot. To construct this model, measurements of the robot are required. At the University of Amsterdam a self-calibrating measuring system has been developed, using a camera mounted in the robot hand and a re...
متن کاملDevelopment and Validation of Sound Transmission Loss Measurement System for Measuring Muffler Performance
Muffler is a part of the vehicle exhaust system that absorb or reflect sound waves to reduce exhaust noise. One of the most important determinants of a muffler performance is the amount of attenuation that has on its input wave; this parameter is known as sound transmission loss. Four - mic standard test is one way to determine this parameter which is used in this paper. In this study, a test d...
متن کاملUse of glycerol-preserved corneas for corneal transplants
PURPOSE This study was carried out to see the results of glycerol-preserved cornea (GPC) in emergency situation when fresh corneal tissue was not available. The aim was to study the outcome of corneal transplantation using GPC. METHODS This was a retrospective study. The medical records of all the patients were reviewed, who underwent keratoplasty using "GPC" during the period from October 20...
متن کاملOcclusable corneas in toadfishes: light transmission, movement and ultrastruture of pigment during light- and dark-adaptation.
The toadfishes Tetractenos hamiltoni and Torquigener pleurogramma (Tetraodontidae) possess occlusable yellow corneas. We examine the light transmission and location of the yellow/orange pigment throughout the cornea, the temporal properties of pigment migration and the ultrastructure of the pigmented processes during light- and dark-adaptation. Each species was dark-adapted during the day and l...
