title: [Spectrophotometric studies for the demonstration of chromo-proteins and bilirubin in the eye (author's transl)].
abstract: Following intravenous injection we could demonstrate spectrophotometrically that in the rabbit chromo-proteins like hemoglobin and myoglobin as well as bilirubin are present in anterior chamber fluid, lens and vitreous body. We did not try yet to study the dynamics of these substances in relation to time and their quantitative distribution. Our findings, however, suggest a relationship between the concentration of these substances in the different parts of the eye and the serum. In lens, vitreous body and the anterior chamber fluid of patients dying with jaundice we also were able to demonstrate bilirubin spectrophotometrically.
