Rat Conjunctival Epithelial Cells

Research on the Rat Conjunctival Epithelial Cells is essential to the study of dry eye disease, viral/bacterial conjunctivitis (adenoviral, chlamydial), allergic eye disease, squamous metaplasia, and conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia. The eye is a complex sensory organ that allows an organism to perceive visual information. It is composed of the eyeball and its accessory structures. The eyeball is the main visual organ, responsible for image formation and phototransduction. The accessory parts include the eyelids, conjunctiva, lacrimal apparatus, extraocular muscles, and the connective tissue within the orbit, which together protect and enable movement of the eyeball. The Rat Conjunctival Epithelial Cells are to be used with Rat Conjunctival Epithelial Cell Medium (Cat. No. ACM0390). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
