title: Soft tissue response to blood-impregnated Proplast.
abstract: The effects of Proplast implants on the soft tissues of rats were studied. The effects from Proplast implants which had been impregnated with blood, plasma, or saline were compared to the effects from implants which had received no pretreatment. No significant differences were found.
