Chromic Catgut is a biologic absorbable suture obtained from sheep gut submucosa.
Its threads are treated whit chromic salts to prolong the absorption time of the
suture.Chromic Catgut is absorbed by the enzymatic reaction (phagocytosis).
A tissue reaction may be observed before organic materials are completely
absorbed.complete mass absorption is approximately in 70 days.
The thread keeps its tensile strength between 14 and 21 days.
When used in infected tissue or in tissue with increased levels of proteolytic enzymes (e.g.stomach, cervix, and vagina)it is more quickly absorbed. Inclosed liquid isopropyl alcohol ,
it can play the role of anticorrosion and soften the line.
This suture is sterilized by gamma radiation and is available in brown color.

The main peformance
1. cell adhession is strong , has good biocompatibility , non-toxic side effects absorption of stable
2. threads body have antibacterial actuvity , can inhibit bacterial growth of the wound site, and induces wound tissue growth ,wound healing .
3. surface of the body is made through a special process, it's smooth , easy to suture.                                                                             .
4. high tensile strength , soft body , easy to knot is very stable .
5. easy to store and transport , can application to all types of wound sew
