Description:
Polyglactin Suture is a synthetic, absorbable, and sterile surgical suture comprised of a copolymer derived from 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide. Retaining approximately 70% of its tensile strength up to 14 days after implantation, this suture undergoes complete absorption within 50 to 70 days through a predictable and simple hydrolytic mechanism. A notable counterpart, emerges as a significantly superior alternative to catgut sutures. It outshines in predictability of absorption, offers enhanced tensile strength, and exhibits no adverse tissue reactions.
Applications:
General surgery
Gynecological
Gastro-intestinal tract surgery
Ophthalmic procedures
Properties:
Good Flexibility: Exhibiting a flexible nature, the suture adapts well to varying tissue structures during surgical procedures.
Reliable Knot Security: Ensuring secure and stable knots, Polyglactin Suture enhances the integrity of surgical closures.
Smooth Passage Through Tissue: With a design that promotes smooth tissue passage, this suture minimizes trauma during application.
High Tensile Strength: Boasting high tensile strength, Polyglactin Suture provides durability and effectiveness in tissue approximation.
