—During postnatal growth the free amino acids pattern of rat retina differs at various developmental stages. The adult level for individual amino acids is reached on the 30th day of maturation. During differentiation the taurine, glutamic acid, GABA, glutamine, aspartic acid, glycine arginine, methionine and histidine levels increase while proline. alanine, ornithine and tyrosine decrease.
