COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR DESTROYING HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

摘要

The invention provides a process for the preparation of a tablet composition suitable for destroying substantially all of the hydrogen peroxide remaining after disinfecting a contact lens with a hydrogen peroxide solution, the tablet composition being a compressed tablet containing a non-mammalian derived catalase, but excluding tablets consisting of 1mg of A. niger catalase-R and a sorbitol carrier; which process comprises subjecting the catalase to conventional compression tableting conditions to produce a compressed tablet in which the stability of the catalase is greater than the stability of bovine catalase when subjected to the same conventional compression tableting.
