✦ Synopsis

The side effects of acetazolamide (Diamox | on lacrimation were measured in rats by means of the cotton-thread tear test. After a daily oral 1-mg dose (administered for five days), comparable to the dose used for adult humans on a drug-to-bodyweight basis, tear production remained unaffected but the lacrimal peroxidase secretion decreased by 60% of the baseline level. After withdrawal of acetazolmnide the peroxidase secretion returned to the baseline level.

## Abstract The effect of blending a short and a long chain prepolymer, i.e. the effect of biomodality, and that of concentration of the crosslinker on mechanical properties has been investigated. The content of short chain prepolymer was varied from 0 to 80 wt.‐%. Different concentrations of cross
