The effect of colloidal solutions on bacterial translocation was studied in an experimental sublethal hemorrhagic shock model. After achieving a sublethal hemorrhagic in animals resuscitation was performed with four different solutions (9 animals in each group): Group I 0.9% NaCl, Group II 10% dextran40, Group III 6% hydroxyethyl starch, Group IV 4% modified fluid gelatin. 24 hours after anesthesia
