polystomes found in the conjunctival sacs were grouped in three distinct lineages, the first one including a single species infecting an Australian pleurodire turtle; the second one including eleven species infecting cryptodire turtles of South America, North America and Asia; and the last one inclu...
Conjunctival sacs were scraped for bacterial culturing before administration, 1 week postoperatively, at the completion of administration, and 1, 3, and 6 months after administration completion. The bacterial culture growth and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of levofloxacin against recovered ...

The progression varied among the animals and there was no concordance with the contralateral eye in the same animal. Histopathological examination showed a fold with its origin in the conjunctival sacs. This fold was formed by a connective tissue core lined by a conjunctival epithelium.Secondary ...
To evaluate and compare the in vitro susceptibilities of various fluoroquinolones (i.e., gatifloxacin, levofloxacin, tosufloxacin, and moxifloxacin) against conjunctival bacterial flora. Two hundred sixty-six bacterial isolates were collected from the conjunctival sacs of 251 eyes of 224 patients (118...
