    vapor. RIGHT: Opposite eye exposed to same dose but treated 2 minutes later with 5 per cent BAL ointment. 612-613 Rabbit’s eye 1 hour after exposure to HN, showing intense meiosis. 612-613 haziness of cornea and widely dilated pupil, with necrosis of the iris. 612-613 Rabbit’s eye 21 days after exposure to HNg, showing erosion of the cornea, necrotic iris, and early cataract. 612-613 Apparatus designed for the quantitative estimation of the degree of adhesiveness of corneal epithelium to stroma. 617 B is a guillotine-like blade on which weight can be varied by adjust- ing the weight on the beam. ST is a strip of beef cornea over which the guillotine blade is rubbed to remove the epithelium. The weight on the blade required to rub off a given amount of epithelium is a direct measure of its adhesiveness to stroma. Diagram showing the construction and operation of the aero- sol bomb. 640
