Combined Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid Chelation, Phototherapeutic Keratectomy and Amniotic Membrane Transplantation for Treatment of Band Keratopathy
PURPOSE The objective of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) chelation and excimer laser phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) combined with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) for the treatment of band keratopathy (BK). METHODS Eleven eyes in ten patients with BK received combined PTK (ablation zone of central 7.0-7.5 mm, depth of 50 ...

برهمکنش dnaتیموس گاوی طبیعی (ct-dna) با اتیلن دی آمین تترااستات (edta)در بافرtris-hcl با 8/7 ph ( دراین ph،edta به نمک دی سدیم تبدیل می شود) وسسامول در بافر tris-hcl با4/7 ph مورد بررسی قرار گرفته است. edta و سسامول استفاده فراوانی در تکنولوژی غذایی و صنعت شیمیایی دارند. مدل اتصال dna مربوط بهedta بوسیله اسپکتروفتومتری جذب، دورنگ نمایی حلقوی(cd)، ویسکومتری وژل الکتروفورز بررسی شده است. طیفuv ...
15 صفحه اولBand keratopathy: a modified treatment.
PURPOSE The surgical treatment of band keratopathy usually consists of abrasion of the corneal epithelium followed by removal of the subepithelial calcium deposits by means of an ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (EDTA) solution. In order to reduce the discomfort and pain that occur after corneal abrasion, the authors developed a modified technique that avoids the abrasion of the epithelium. M...
