Surgicryl Monofast Sutures are an absorbable synthetic monofilament suture used for superficial soft tissue and/or ligation. They exhibit approximately 60% absorption at 7 days with total absorption achieved in 90 – 120 days.

Features:
• High tensile strength
• Excellent tissue support
• Minimal tissue reaction
• Predictable absorption rate
• Soft passage through the tissues without sawing, tissue drag and trauma
• Absence of capillarity (no support of bacterial growth)
• Excellent knot tie down
• Good handling properties
• Easy and secure knotting
• Monofilament with microscopic uniform diameter
• Pliability and softness
• Guaranteed seal and product sterility
• Hermetically sealed packing

Specifications:
•Type: Monofilament
•Composition: Polyglecaprone 25, a copolymer made of 75% glycolide and 25% ?-caprolactone
•Coating: None
•Colour: Violet / Beige – Undyed
•Tissue Reaction: Minimal
•Absorption: 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.
