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

TECHNICAL DATA
PDO (polydioxanone) monofilament synthetic absorbable suture is prepared from the polyester, poly (p-dioxanone). The empirical molecular formula of the polymer is (C4H6O3)x. 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. PDO meet all the requirements of European Pharmacopoeia (EP) for Synthetic Absorbable Monofilament Sutures.
