Effect of three different media on serum free culture of donor corneas and isolated human corneal endothelial cells

Abstract

After incubation in Endothelial-SFM even under serum free conditions corneas were found to be of higher quality with respect to endothelial cell survival, cell membrane integrity, and keratocyte density. This medium may replace MEM, which is routinely used in European eye banks but requires supplementation with serum.
