Absorbable Sutures

Monofilament synthetic surgical suture composed of glycolide and e-caprolactone copolymer

Poliglecaprone 25 sutures are monofilament synthetic absorbable sutures made from a copolymer of glycolide and e-caprolactone. The PGCL polymer has been found to be non-antigenic and non-pyrogenic, causing only a mild tissue reaction during absorption, making it an ideal choice for delicate tissue closure.

Certification Registration Number:

ISO 13485 Certificate No.: C564964
ISO 14001 Certificate No.: 00222E34558ROS
ISO 45001 Certificate No.: NOA2403088

Properties

Suture size: USP 2 - USP 6/0
Colour: violet/undyed
Chemical composition: Poly(glyclolide-co-caprolactone)
Sterilization: ethylene oxide
Structure: monofilament
Tensile strength: approximately 60%-80% is retained after a week
Absorption time: complete absorption by hydrolysis within 90-110 days

Applications

Poliglecaprone 25 sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues, microsurgery or ophthalmic surgery.

Advantages

Poliglecaprone suture is a synthetic, monofilament absorbable suture.
Available in U.S.P. sizes 1 to 6-0, in undyed (beige-golden) and dark violet
Made from 100% Poly(glycolic-co-caprolactone) (PGCL)
Poliglecaprone sutures absorb by simple hydrolytic mechanism and absorption is predictable.
Poliglecaprone sutures retain about 50 – 60 % of the initial tensile strength at 7 days, 20 – 30 % of the initial tensile strength at 14 days of implantation and the suture is essentially absorbed within 90 – 120 days of implantation.
Poliglecaprone sutures pass through the tissues easily and since the suture is monofilament knotting is very easy.
Poliglecaprone sutures have good knot security and easy knot placement.
Poliglecaprone sutures are available with needles made from 300 series alloy steel for superior strength, sharpness and performance.
Poliglecaprone sutures have excellent tensile strength and needle attachment strength.
