Animal Compound–Free Medium and Poloxamer for Human Corneal Organ Culture and Deswelling

Abstract

The ACF medium combined with poloxamer 188 for deswelling showed superiority over standard FCS medium in its ability to preserve EC viability and facilitate endothelial visualization. This innovative use of poloxamer for deswelling appears far less toxic than does dextran.
