title: [Vitreous body proteins. IV. Proteolytic activity of the vitreous body in pathological conditions of the eye].
abstract: Two groups of proteins are present in the vitreous: collagen and non-collagen, deriving probably from the blood serum. The authors examined the proteolytic activity against haemoglobin in the course of some ocular pathological conditions. It was demonstrated that the vitreous digests haemoglobin in the acid division of pH (optimum--3.0-4.5) with various activity dependent on the pathological condition of the eye.
