## Abstract Porous polyester thermoset xerogels have been produced via solโgel chemistry as a first step in the development of solโgel derived tissue engineering scaffolds templated by replica molding and/or salt leaching. The pore structure of these untemplated thermosets is tunable and can be alt

โฆ Synopsis
Nine samples of plastic, including PVC stabilized with various amounts of organotins, silicone rubber, PTFE, polyethylene, polypropylene, and a U.S.P.
negative control high density polyethylene, were implanted in rat gluteal muscle. Frozen sections were cut in a cryostat microtome and treated for enzyme histochemical reactions. These included succinic dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, aminopeptidase and adenosine triphosphatase. The results illustrate that enzyme histochemical data can be of value in supplementing other methods in the evaluation of polymers for tissue compatibility.
