BCOP, or the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability assay, is an in vitro test used to evaluate the ocular toxicity of substances by assessing their effects on bovine corneas. It measures corneal opacity and permeability to determine the potential of a compound to cause eye damage. This assay is often employed in regulatory toxicology to replace or reduce the use of animal testing for eye irritation assessments.

What is the formula to calculate the net filtration pressure?
FP = BHP - (CsHP + BCOP)
Starlings Law of Capillaries states that?
Starling's law of the capillaries states that the net filtration = forces favouring filtration vs. forces opposing filtration. These forces include: Tonicity, Blod Hydrostatic Pressure (BHP), Blood Colloid Osmotic Pressure (BCOP), Interstitial Fluid Hydrostatic Pressure (IFHP), Interstitial Fluid Colloidal Pressure (IFCOP) and membrane permeability. Therefore effective filtration pressure (and the application of Starling's Law of the Capillaries) is defined as such: EFP=(BHP + IFCOP) - (IFHP + BCOP) Therefore: BHP + IFCOP moves fluid out of the capillaries and IFHP + BCOP moves fluid into capillaries
How is effective filtration pressure calculated?
The Net Filtration Pressure (NFP) at the glomerulus is the difference between the net hydrostatic pressure and the blood colloid osmotic pressure acting across the glomerular capillaries. Under normal circumstances we can summarize this as NFP = NHP - BCOP or NFP = 35mm Hg - 25 mm Hg = 10mm Hg This is the average pressure forcing water and dissolved materials out of the glomerular capillaries and into the capsular spaces.
