Description
The Monocryl Plus Undyed Suture, with a size of 5-0 and a length of 18 inches, is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture designed for delicate tissue approximation. Composed of monofilament poliglecaprone 25, this undyed suture provides excellent tensile strength and is designed to maintain wound support during the critical healing period. The suture comes with a PS-2 (Precision Reverse Cutting) needle for precise and controlled stitching.
The 5-0 size is ideal for delicate and fine tissue closure, offering both strength and precision. The 18-inch length provides sufficient material for stitching, ensuring versatility and adaptability in the surgical setting.
The monofilament nature of the Monocryl Plus suture reduces tissue drag and provides a smooth passage through tissues, minimizing trauma and irritation. Being undyed, it minimizes the risk of tissue staining.
MONOCRYL Plus Antibacterial (poliglecaprone 25) monofilament suture is a monofilament synthetic absorbable surgical suture prepared from a copolymer of glycolide and epsilon-caprolactone. The suture contains Irgacare MP (triclosan), a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent. MONOCRYL Plus Antibacterial 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.
