Key Features
- Coated Vicryl Plus Antibacterial Sutures - Have been proven in vitro to create a zone of inhibition against the most common surgical site pathogens: Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, MRSA, and MRSE.
- Synthetic absorbable polyglactin 910 - absorbed by hydrolysis, providing predictable absorption profile with minimal tissue reactivity compared to natural gut sutures.
- Braided construction with coating - the Vicryl coating (polyglactin 370 and calcium stearate) provides smooth passage through tissue and easy knot tie-down.
- Predictable absorption timeline - retains approximately 75% tensile strength at 2 weeks and 50% at 3 weeks, with complete absorption by 56 to 70 days.
- Minimal inflammatory response - synthetic material elicits less tissue reaction than natural gut, supporting comfortable and reliable healing.
- Wide size range - available from 10-0 to #2 to accommodate microsurgical to large-scale fascial closure requirements.
- Taper Point Needle Design - penetrates tissue by separating fibers rather than cutting, reducing tissue trauma and the risk of tearing during placement.
