The ultrastructural differences in rat corneal endothelia preserved at 0°C and 4°C were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Some corneas were preserved as whole globes in an eye preservation medium (EP-II) either at 4°C or at 0°C for 1, 2 and 7 days. The specimens were prepared for SEM and TEM according to routine methods. For all storage times, the endothelium preserved at 0°C showed less irregularity of the cell surface, swollen mitochondria or vacuoles than that at 4°C. A significant difference in structural changes between the endothelium preserved at 4°C and 0°C was seen after 7 days' storage. The former showed destruction of the surface cell membrane and degenerated cell organella...
