Ethicon 4995H - Chromic Gut Suture - Size 1, 1x27" - 36/Box

Ethicon 4995H is an absorbable chromic gut monofilament suture, size 1, 1x27", with an MO-5 1/2 circle needle taper point needle. Chromic Gut is an absorbable suture composed of purified connective collagen tissue treated with chromic acid salts to extend absorption time, providing reliable short-term wound support as the tissue heals.

Key Features

  • Absorbable collagen construction - composed of purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) derived from the serosal layer of beef intestines, absorbed by the body through enzymatic degradation.
  • Chromic treatment for extended absorption - chromic acid salt processing delays the natural absorption process, providing extended wound support compared to plain gut.
  • Monofilament structure - smooth single-strand surface minimizes tissue drag and reduces the risk of bacterial harboring compared to braided sutures.
  • Natural material - derived from bovine sources and processed under sterile conditions for consistent performance.
  • Predictable absorption profile - absorption rate is influenced by enzymatic activity in tissue, providing reliable short-to-medium term support during the healing phase.
  • Taper Point Needle Design - penetrates tissue by separating fibers rather than cutting, reducing tissue trauma and the risk of tearing during placement.
