Abstract
By Micro-Kjeldahl method, the author performed quantitative determination of total nitrogen and nonprotein nitrogen in conjunctival epithelium in the normal state, in trachoma, keratoconjunctivitis epidemica and conjunctivitis vernalis, and the results were stochastically assessed, Also for reference sake, the same determination was made with conjunctiva of the normal rabbit.
The bulbar conjunctiva and fornix in trachoma and keratoconjunctivitis epidemica had no significant difference in the values from those in normal case, but in conjunctivitis vernalis, the values were found to have tendency of increase over those for the normal.
