Summary

Experiments with intravenous injections of an aqueous extract of cellophane sheet into dogs showed that there were no significant changes in the blood pressure or respiration, nor any disturbances of the animal's general condition. It was found by experiments in vitro that Soviet cellophane membrane caused no significant changes in the blood cells and was impermeable to protein molecules.

Soviet cellophane membranous sheet may, therefore, be recommended for use in the artificial kidney apparation.
