SS1004 – Polydioxanone Suture.
Monofilament Polydioxanone absorbable surgical suture USP
Description
Monofilament Polydioxanone Suture is prepared from polyester, poly (p-dioxanone). Two important characteristics describe the in vivo performance of absorbable sutures first tensile strength retention and second the absorption rate (loss of mass). This synthetic absorbable suture has been formulated to minimize the variability of these characteristics and to provide wound support through an extended Healing period.
