Polydioxanone (PDO) suture USP1 75CM 1/2circle round bodied 35mm surgical

PDO (polydioxanone) monofilament synthetic absorbable suture is prepared from polydioxanone(PDO). The empirical molecular formula of the polymer is (C4H603)×. It is available both dyed and un-dyed. 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.
