Abstract
Cysteamine eye drops in concentrations from 0.1% to 10% were tested in albino rabbits in both short and long-term experiments. Toxicity, consisting of an inflammatory response, was proportional to the cysteamine concentration and absent at concentrations at or below 0.5%.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
