CARRY-C is a medium for corneal deswelling and transport at room temperature for up to 5 days.
What is CARRY-C?
CARRY-C is a medium for corneal deswelling and transport at room temperature for up to 5 days, packaged in a bottle with a mouth internal diameter of more than 22 mm to facilitate handling procedures in an aseptic environment, thus minimizing the risk of contamination. The solution contains an antibiotic and antimycotic mixture that guarantees an effective protection against bacteria and fungi, and the phenol red indicator to allow a rapid visualization of pH variations.
Stability studies showed that alternate freezing-thawing cycles do not alter the physical/chemical properties of the medium.
The package includes 12 additional caps, singularly packaged in a sterile pouch, to close the bottles before transport of corneas deemed suitable for transplantation, and avoid tampering since they have a tamper-evident security ring to be broken by the surgeon, when ready for tissue transplantation.
