title: [Cornea preservation in a continuous tissue culture medium at +37 degrees C].
abstract: Seven human corneae were preserved 1 or 2 weeks in a continuous tissue culture medium at +37 degrees C. 200 microgram/ml gentamycin and 2.5 microgram/ml amphotericin B were added, and no infection was noted after 2 weeks. Histological and electronmicroscopical findings presented a picture of well-kept cellular and subcellular structures. Comparable electron-optical examinations taken on seven corneae kept at +4 degrees C in a modified medium 199 showed the beginning of endothelial necrobiosis.
