SMI Suture Daclon Nylon 3/0 with DS 24 24mm 3/8 Circle Reverse Cutting Needle 75cm (12)
SMI Suture Daclon Nylon 3/0 with DS 24 24mm 3/8 Circle Reverse Cutting Needle 75cm (12)
SMI Daclon nylon sutures are non-absorbable, synthetic, monofilament sutures known for their high tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction. They are designed for general soft tissue closing and/or ligation and are available in blue and black. The monofilament structure provides a smooth passage through tissue, minimizing trauma and preventing bacterial growth.
Material
Extrusion of polyamide 6.0 or 6.6.
Structure
Monofilament. The single-stranded design allows for easy passage through tissues, reducing drag and trauma.
Coating
None.
Absorption
Non-absorbable, gradually encapsulated by connective tissue. The thread mass diminishes, approximately 10% a year by rupture of chemical links (hydrolytic action).
Tissue Reaction
Minimal
Microscopic Uniform Diameter
Ensures smooth tissue passage and prevents capillarity, which could harbor bacteria.
Pliability and Softness
Provides good handling properties for easy and secure knotting.
Applications
Suitable for us in general surgery, skin closure, plastic surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, gynaecology and obstetrics, orthopaedic procedures and ophthalmic surgery
Characteristics
> High tensile strength and non-absorbable, excellent and permanent tissue support
> Synthetic, minimal tissue reaction
> Monofilament with microscopic uniform diameter, soft passage through tissue without sawing,
tissue drag and trauma, absence of capillarity (no support of bacterial growth) and excellent knot tie down
> Pliability and softness, good handling properties, easy and secure knotting
> Hermetically sealed packing, guaranteed seal and product sterility
