7/0 PGA Resorba Sutures
The breakdown of the PGA suture in the tissue occurs through water uptake, thereby reversing the synthesis. Regular metabolic processes break down the glycolic acid monomers into CO2 and H2O through enzymatic degradation. The physical and physiological properties of suture material containing 10% lactide as copolymer differ only slightly from pure PGA sutures.
The thin, precision-braided filaments provide very high tear resistance as well as excellent suppleness. The special coating thinly encapsulates the
PGA RESORBA® contains precision braided filaments made of polyglycolic acid that result in a standardised, moderate rate of absorption in the tissue. Depending on the thread diameter 50% of the original tensile strength of PGA RESORBA® is lost after 18 days. Violet PGA RESORBA® is coloured with a physiologically harmless dye.
With a complete range of suture materials and needles, Resorba has a direct alternative to all your current sutures.
