Corneal Epithelial Cells, which form a tissue covering that protects the cornea from bacteria and other harmful organisms and substances. Paired Media has been optimized specifically for the unique requirements of the cells Recent published studies demonstrate the utility of corneal epithelial cells in basic research and pharmaceutical drug discovery. Human Corneal Epithelial Cells (HCEpC) have been used as models for studying corneal damage & reconstruction, re-epithelialization of the eye following surgery, and the effects of degradative enzymes. Rabbit Corneal Epithelial Cells (RbCEpC) help assess drug safety, pharmaceutical effects, corneal development, pathology, glaucoma, viral infections, keratitis, ocular hypertension, and even special contact lenses that provide sustained, extended release of ophthalmic drugs. This newest in a series of recent product introductions strengthens CAI's commitment to support research on normal physiology and disease states in tissues and organs.
