title: [Catalase activity in argon-laser irradiation].
abstract: Catalase may provide protection against photochemical action of superoxide radicals and hydrogen peroxide. The authors tried to measure its activity in freshly enucleated calf eyes before and after argon laser irradiation. It was established by iodometric titration that catalase activity was reduced after irradiation in vitreous and in purified catalase solution, but not in the lens.
