Description

Cassette-packed surgical suture from polydioxanone (PDO). A synthetic, monofilament, absorbable surgical suture in violet colour. Sterilised with Ethylenoxide (EO). Slow absorption and prolonged tensile-strength retention make it well suited for slowly healing tissues.

CHARACTERISTICS
Polydioxanone monofilament absorbable synthetic thread.

Extended wound support – absorbable with prolonged tensile-strength retention.
Predictable absorption – absorbed by hydrolysis over a defined period.
Minimal tissue reactivity – biocompatible polydioxanone material, minimal tissue response.
Smooth monofilament – passes through tissue with minimal drag and reduced trauma.
Violet colour – high visibility against tissue for precise surgical procedures.
Reduced capillarity – minimal fluid wicking reduces fluid and bacterial transport.
Sterile packaging – safe for surgical use.

INDICATIONS
For veterinary use. Typically used for soft-tissue approximation and ligation where extended wound support is required, including muscle repair, fascial and abdominal-wall closure, selected fascial closures during hernia repair, subcutaneous or intradermal closure, and vessel ligation for haemostasis.

PACKAGING
Sterile, cassette-enclosed reel with a double security cap, packed in a paper box. 

AVAILABLE VARIANTS
Cassette-enclosed reels of 25 m – USP 3/0 to USP 2 (EP2 to EP5); reels of 50 m – USP 1 and USP 2 (EP4 and EP5).
