Monofilament, Synthetic, Absorbable Surgical Suture, U.S.P.

TECHNICAL DATA
PGCL monofilament synthetic absorbable suture is prepared from the polyester, Poly (glycolic-co-caprolactone). It is available both dyed and undyed. When dyed, color additives such as D%C Violet No.2 are used. Polydioxanone polymer has been found to be nonantigenic nonpyrogenic, and elicits only a slight tissue reaction during absorption. PGCL meet all the requirements of European Pharmacopoeia (EP) for Synthetic Absorbable Monofilament Sutures.
