Stability of RNA from the Retina and Retinal Pigment Epithelium in a Porcine Model Simulating Human Eye Bank Conditions
23 May 2003
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To assess RNA stability after death in a porcine model to simulate current human eye bank techniques. METHODS: Eye bank time interval data were collected from 191 donor specimens: death to refrigeration, enucleation, and tissue processing. A control porcine eye was enucleated, retina and RPE isolated, and specimens frozen (-80 degrees C). Fourteen porcine eyes remained at room temperature for 2 hours and...
