Purpose: High-frequency applied cetalkonium chloride (CAC) and benzalkonium chloride (BAC) 0.02% did not hamper corneal healing in a living rabbit model of induced corneal erosion. In contrast, the ex vivo eye irritation test (EVEIT) shows inhibition of healing for these substances. In a systematic ex vivo reproduction of the in vivo experiments, we discuss the background of these differences. Methods: Excised rabbit corneas (n = 5 per group) were cultured in artificial anterior chambers (EVEIT). Four erosions were induced for each cornea before starting regular 21 installations/day over 3 days of (1) CAC containing eye drops (Cationorm), (2) 0.02% BAC. Corneal fluorescein staining, quantification of glucose-/lactate consumption, and histol. were performed. Results: BAC 0.02% treated corneas showed increased epithelial lesions from 10.13 ± 0.65 mm2 to 10 ± 0.8 mm2 on day 0, to 86.82 ± 5.18 mm2 (P < 0.0001) by day 3. After a trend toward smaller lesions for CAC on day 1, erosion sizes increased significantly by day 3 from 9.82 ± 0.30 mm2 to 29.51 ± 16.87 mm2 (P < 0.05). For 1 cornea, corneal erosions nearly disappeared on day 3 (0.89 mm2). Corneal lactate increased significantly for BAC and CAC, whereas glucose concentrations were unchanged. Histol. revealed disintegration of the corneal structures for both compounds Conclusions: The data underline the EVEIT as a predictive toxicity test to show side effects in a time-compressed manner. The consistency of these predictions was previously demonstrated by the EVEIT for BAC, phosphate buffer, and others. The EVEIT is suited for a chronic application prediction of tolerability and toxic side effects of eye drops in particular, and other chems. in general. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as N-Benzyl-N,N-dimethylhexadecan-1-aminium chloride (cas: 122-18-9Reference of 122-18-9).
N-Benzyl-N,N-dimethylhexadecan-1-aminium chloride (cas: 122-18-9) belongs to organic chlorides. Chlorination modifies the physical properties of hydrocarbons in several ways. These compounds are typically denser than water due to the higher atomic weight of chlorine versus hydrogen. Aliphatic organochlorides are often alkylating agents as chlorine can act as a leaving group, which can result in cellular damage.Reference of 122-18-9
