title: Biological tolerance of copolymers of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-vinylpyridine.
abstract: The healing-in of implants of terpolymer gels having different chemical composition was studied in animals. Histological analysis showed that all polymers under investigation are healed-in in a similar way by encapsulation with collagen fibrous tissue. Neither cancerogenic effect nor calcification were observed within the interval studied.
