摘要

Objective

The stability of ascorbic acid (AA) in the human aqueous humor (AqH) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the stability of AqH AA under varying conditions (27, 4, − 20, and − 80 °C) without acidification.

Results

Rapid AA degradation occurred at 27 °C. At 4 °C, a significant 12.2% degradation was observed after 24 h. Storage at − 20 °C resulted in a notable 37.5% degradation after 28 days, whereas storage at − 80 °C resulted in 10.7% degradation after 28 days. Unacidified AqH samples recorded early decomposition at 27 °C and 4 °C. In conclusion, it is recommended to conduct measurements within 28 days for samples stored at − 80 °C.
