Description
Type MonofilamentComposition Polyglecaprone 25, a copolymer made of 75% glycolide and 25% ?-caprolactoneCoating NoneColour Violet / Beige – undyedTissue reaction MinimalAbsorption The hydrolytic action by which the material is broken down results in total absorption in approximately 90 to 120 days. Approximately 60% of tensile strength remain after 7 days.Presentation Box with 12 sutures
