title: [Method of determining the colloidal status of the vitreous body].
abstract: A new method for the quantitative estimation of the vitreous body colloidal state has been suggested. For realization of the method a fragment of the vitreous body and an equal volume of water are dried out, and the drying time is registered. The higher is the ratio between the drying time of the vitreous body fragment and water, the higher is the density of the vitreous body gel. The drying out of the vitreous body fragment and water on the analytical balance cups permits the registration of the drying out process in the time course. Thus some additional parameters are obtained that characterize the object studied more completely. The method can be used in experimental and clinical investigations of the vitreous body and other biological liquids.
