Influence of free ligands and low temperature on the corneal epithelial uptake of deslorelin- and transferrin-functionalized nanoparticles in the bovine ex vivo model. Free ligands were used at a concentration of 1 mg/ml in the nanoparticle drop administered. The data are expressed as mean±SD for n=3. The asterisk indicates a p<0.05 compared to controls at 37 °C.
