PGA RESORBA® is an absorbable surgical suture that is precision-braided from thin PGA filaments and encapsulated in a thin coating to reduce surface friction. 50% of tensile strength is lost in 18 days. This suture offers outstanding suppleness and very high tear resistance.
GLYCOLON™ is absorbablemonofilament structure provides excellent handling properties, does not wick bacteria, and allows for atraumatic passage through the tissue. Glycolon™ maintains 50% of its tensile strength for 11-13 days.
An synthetic suture made of precision braided filaments of polyglycolic acid. Calcium stearate & polycaprolactone coating enables suture to slide through soft tissue with minimal friction and suture itself is very soft ant supple. After only seven days PGA resoquick™ has already lost 50% of its original breaking load. After 14 days all original breaking load is lost completely. Absorption of PGA resoquick™ is approximately completed after 42 days.

NYLON is a monofilament extruded thread made from polyamide. Because of its high tensile strength, even when the fibre diameter is very fine, NYLON is particularly suitable for very fine suturing in microsurgery. Polyamides can bind up to 10% water.
DENTOFIL™ PTFE suture is an ideal suture for dental bone grafting and implant procedures where a soft monofilament suture is desirable. Cytoplast™ PTFE suture’s monofilament construction doesn’t allow bacterial wicking into the surgical site, and unlike most monofilament sutures, patients like it because it is soft.
MOPYLEN® is non-absorbable monofilament suture based on Polypropylen. It is hydrophobic, i.e., it absorbs practically no water and is chemically inert.
MOPYLEN® is an ideal skin suture, especially in plastic surgery and anywhere, where an excellent cosmetic result is critical.
