摘要: Ascorbic acid is known to exist in high concentration the aqueous humor of eye many species. It has been observed that diurnal mammals have a very whereas nocturnal do not. hypothesized ascorbic protects from harmful effects sunlight. We discovered two closely related species spiny mice, (Acomys russatus) 35 times higher than cahirinus). Studies these may be fruitful extend what about adaptation protect itself intense solar radiation.
