Abstract

Plasma biochemical values, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), glucose, asparate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine phosphokinase (CPK), were compared between the samples collected from orbital sinus, heart and tail vein in mice, rats and hamsters. The significant higher values of AST, LDH and CPK were shown in samples from orbital sinus as compared with that from other sites. The blood from orbital sinus was bleeding by two methods and compared in the plasma enzyme values. It is suggested that the leakages of these enzymes from destroyed ocular tissues result in the increase of the plasma enzyme vallues.
