title: Intracameral ascorbic acid, glutathione and protein levels in albino and pigmented rabbits.
abstract: We performed a comparative investigation into differences between albino and pigmented rabbits in respect of intracameral concentrations of ascorbic acid, glutathione and total protein with high-performance liquid chromatography. The intracameral concentrations of reduced ascorbic acid, total ascorbic acid, reduced glutathione, total glutathione and protein in albino rabbits were similar (p > 0.05) to those in pigmented rabbits.
