title: Haemostatic plugs as a histological vital reaction in the skin wounds of guinea pigs.
abstract: Applying a histological staining method (Carstairs' modification of picro-Mallory staining), haemostatic plugs could be demonstrated at points of vascular lesion in one-minute vital, or older, skin wounds of the guinea-pig on the average in 33% if the specimen was taken immediately after the reaction period, and in about 10% of wounds examined if the specimen was taken five days after death. No haemostatic plugs could be observed in postmortally inflicted skin wounds.
