Figure 5. Phosphorus and calcium present in vitreous from normal and galactose-fed dogs

Percent elemental composition of calcium and phosphorus in vitreous from galactose-fed dogs containing asteroid bodies (AB) and vitreous from age-matched controls not containing AB. (n=3-4), Asterisks indicate AB containing vitreous had statistically significant larger fractions of calcium and phosphorus (p<0.05). The error bars represent the standard deviation.
