Description
Suture, Polypropylene 6-0 Blue 1X18 P-1 is a nonabsorbable, monofilament surgical suture designed for high tensile strength and minimal tissue reactivity. Manufactured using an advanced extrusion process, the suture has a uniformly round cross-section, allowing for smooth passage through tissue with reduced resistance. Its synthetic polypropylene composition ensures long-term wound support without degradation.
The suture is equipped with a precision reverse cutting needle, which provides superior penetration while minimizing tissue trauma. The needle's sharpness and strength allow for consistent performance throughout multiple passes, ensuring secure wound closure. The non-reflective finish on the needle reduces glare under surgical lighting, improving visibility in delicate procedures.
This polypropylene suture exhibits excellent resistance to enzymatic degradation and hydrolysis, making it suitable for cardiovascular, plastic, and ophthalmic surgeries. Its monofilament construction reduces capillarity, minimizing bacterial wicking and lowering the risk of infection. Its biocompatible properties lead to minimal inflammatory response, promoting optimal wound healing.
