Table 1
Concentration of glucose in the blood, vitreous, and retina of hypoglycaemic* and control rats
| Group | Blood glucose (mM) | Vitreous glucose (mM) | Retinal glucose (μg glucose/mg retina) |
|---|---|---|---|
| *Rats were fasted overnight and injected subcutaneously with rapid acting insulin (2 U/kg); glucose concentrations were measured 2 hours later. | |||
| Hypoglycaemic | 1.5 (0.1) | 0.57 (0.04) | 5.1 (0.16) |
| (n = 9) | (n = 3) | (n = 6) | |
| Control | 6.1 (0.7) | 3.1 (0.70) | 5.3 (0.31) |
| (n = 6) | (n = 6) | (n = 6) | |
