Description

The PROLENE™ Monofilament Suture, Blue, Size 0, 30", MO-6 Needle is a synthetic, nonabsorbable surgical suture composed of an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene. It features a monofilament construction that ensures minimal tissue drag and reduced risk of bacterial adherence. The suture is supplied sterile and colored blue for enhanced intraoperative visibility and easier postoperative identification.

Engineered for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, this suture is commonly employed in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures. The inertness of the polypropylene material ensures minimal tissue reactivity, making it suitable for use in delicate surgical fields requiring precise and consistent support.

Equipped with an MO-6 taper point needle, the suture is designed to penetrate soft tissue smoothly without cutting or causing trauma. The taper design allows for controlled, gradual tissue dilation, particularly beneficial in areas where soft, atraumatic needle entry is critical to preserve tissue integrity and healing potential.
