  • Length: 18in
  • Material: black braided

Features:

  • Smooth flow through tissue while maintaining optimal knot security
  • For use with taper point needle NS-1 24 mm 3/8 circle

Usages:

  • Cardiovascular surgery
  • Dental surgery
  • Plastic surgery

Indications:

  • Silk suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and neurological procedures

Actions

  • Silk suture elicits a minimal acute inflammatory reaction in tissue, which is followed by gradual encapsulation of the suture by fibrous connective tissue

Tensile Strength:

  • While Silk suture is not absorbed, progressive degradation of the proteinaceous silk fiber in vivo may result in gradual loss of the suture tensile strength over time

Sterilization

  • Ethylene oxide
