Details
- TypeBraided and coated multifilament
- CompositionPolyglycolic acid
- CoatingPolycaprolactone and calcium stearate (1%)
- ColourViolet / Beige - undyed
- Tissue reactionMinimal
- AbsorbtionThe hydrolytic action by which the material is
broken down results in total absorption in
approximately 60 to 90 days. Approximately
50% of tensile strength remain after 21 days. - PresentationBox with 12 sutures
