cassette suture chromic catgut USP0 75m sterile surgical absorbable sterile

Component Parts: Strands of purified collagen taken from the serosal layer of selected bovines, tanned with chrome salts. 

Structure: Monofilament, smooth surface

Absorption: By phagocytosis. The rate of absorption is slowed down by chromizing. Complete mass absorption in approximately 90 days. Approximately 50% of tensile strength remain after 14 days. When used in infected tissues or in tissues with increased levels of proteolytic enzymes (stomach, cervix, vagina) it is more
quickly absorbed.

Sterilization: By Gamma Radiation
