: All authors declare no conflict of interest.
: This article does not contain any studies with animal and human performed by any of the authors. The cornea used in the present work was not suitable for transplantation and for tissues appointed as not suitable for transplantation the characterization of medium is allowed for validating the medium capacity in maintaining active and operative the tissue metabolism, as it has been stated in the note of 23/12/2021 of Centro Nazionale Trapianti (CNT). Furthermore, even with suitable tissue, the developed analytical procedure does not require ethical committee approval. The methodology involves only the collection of small quantities of medium (the cornea is not manipulated and disrupted), which do not interfere with the organ culture.
