Triamcinolone

Manufactured by Alcon
Sourced in United States, India

Triamcinolone is a synthetic corticosteroid medication used in laboratory settings. It is a crystalline compound with anti-inflammatory properties. Triamcinolone is commonly used in research applications, but its specific function and intended use should not be interpreted or extrapolated in this context.

Posterior Vitreous Separation and ILM Peeling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
25G PPV was performed using the CONSTELLATION Vision System (Alcon Laboratories, Inc.). In all eyes, a central vitrectomy was performed. The posterior vitreous was separated from the retina by active aspiration with the vitrectomy probe, and any visible vitreous strands that were adherent to the retina were removed. Intravitreous triamcinolone (40 mg/mL, Triesence®, Alcon, Forth Worth, Texas, USA) was systematically used in all cases as a marker to facilitate visualization and removal of the adherent posterior cortical vitreous. triamcinolone was fully washed out before performance of ILM-peeling in all cases. ILM-peeling was systematically performed using vision blue G (0,125 mg Brilliant Blue G, Fluoron, Ulm, Germany) to stain and then remove the ILM. Postoperatively, topical antibiotic (Vigamox, moxifloxacin 0.5%, Alcon, USA) and antiinflammatory therapy (Pred Forte, prednisolone acetonide 1%, Allergan, Ireland) were administered 4 times daily over 1 month.

Transconjunctival Sutureless Vitrectomy

The surgeries were performed by 5 surgeons (P.K., D.P., J.C., N.W., and V.C.) with more than 10 years of experience in vitreoretinal surgery. A 3-port 23-gauge transconjunctival sutureless vitrectomy was performed using the CONSTELLATION Vision System (Alcon Laboratories, Inc, Fort Worth, Texas, USA). In all eyes, a central vitrectomy was performed and the posterior vitreous humor was separated from the retina. After vitrectomy the ERM and internal limiting membrane were removed using end-gripping forceps (Alcon, Fort Worth, TX, USA) with the assistance of Brilliant Blue G dye (0.05% w/v, Aurolab, India) or triamcinolone (40 mg/mL, Triesence; Alcon, Fort Worth, Texas, USA). The ERM and internal limiting membrane were removed from the central macular area up to the arcades.

Quantifying Corneal Contrast Enhancement

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Quantitative image analysis was performed on fresh cadaveric porcine eyes following application of three contrast agents [ICG, triamcinolone (Triesence, Alcon, Fort Worth, TX), and 1% prednisolone acetate]. Imaging was performed with a portable spectral domain OCT system (Bioptigen). All procedures were performed in triplicate. A fresh porcine eye was initially imaged without contrast (e.g., artificial tears) and then imaged after 1-2 drops of contrast solution was placed on the cornea surface. Intracorneal measurements were also performed. A 2.8 mm keratome clear-corneal incision was made in the peripheral cornea and imaged without contrast material. The clear corneal incision was then stained with the contrast agent and imaged. Contrast enhancement was evaluated at various planes including on the corneal surface (topical) and within the corneal wound (intracorneal). OCT contrast ratio was calculated as outlined above

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
