Black Polyamide Monofilament Suture (12 pcs) - MEDICALINE

Black Polyamide Monofilament Suture

Features of the Black Polyamide Monofilament Suture:

• Composed of long-chain aliphatic polymers (Nylon 6 and Nylon 6.6).
• High knot tensile strength and needle notch resistance, exceeding the limits set by the USP.
• Smooth passage through tissue, thanks to its low friction coefficient.
• Excellent elasticity.
• In vitro strength retention: although polyamide is non-absorbable, it may suffer a progressive loss of
  tensile strength due to hydrolysis, due to its poor tissue adherence.
• Tissue reaction: causes minimal inflammatory reaction, followed by progressive encapsulation by fibrous connective tissue.
• Sterilization: 100% ethylene oxide.
• Color: black.
• Packaged with Tyvek® paper for added safety.
• Shelf life: 5 years from the date of manufacture.
