The Behavior of Hemolabyrinthine, Liquor and Ophthalmic Barriers in Albinism (Comportamento Della Barriere Emolabirintica, Liquorale ed Oftalmica Nell'albinismo),
Abstract
Albino rabbits were used to study the possible changes occurring in the permeability to sodium fluorescin of hemolabyrinthine, liquor and ophthalmic barriers. After describing albinism from the phenotypical and genotypical standpoint, the author discusses methods, experimental techniques and results. The analysis of the values of fluorescin concentration found in albinos in liquor, aqueous and vitreous humor, perilymph and endolymph showed a lesser permeability of the three barriers to the dye and a delay in its elimination from the liquor systems examined.
