Abstract
Conclusions 1. Human plasma administered intravenously is retained and utilized. A patient to whom a daily average of 450 cc of plasma was given over a 5-day period was maintained in positive nitrogen balance. 2. Human plasma appears to be a better agent than blood to employ to maintain nitrogen equilibrium in starvation states. 3. Bovine plasma can be given intravenously to man in fairly large quantities; it is retained and apparently utilized.Keywords
