Both the topical application and infusion administration resulted in a significantly higher concentration of steroids in perilymph than intracardial injection. The level of steroids in the perilymph reached a peak at 1-2 h after dosing, and this was maintained at a relatively high level for several hours. The intracardial injection with steroids yielded very low perilymph levels at all sampling times after administration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
