Description

Ethicon's MONOCRYL Plus Antibacterial Absorbable Sutures offer advanced surgical wound management through their unique composition and design. Crafted from Poliglecaprone 25, these undyed monofilament sutures are enhanced with Triclosan, an antibacterial agent that effectively inhibits bacterial colonization. This feature is particularly beneficial against pathogens commonly associated with surgical site infections, providing an added layer of protection during healing.

Key Features

• Absorbability: These sutures are fully absorbable, with an absorption period ranging from 90 to 120 days, making them suitable for subcuticular skin closure.
• Tensile Strength: They possess medium tensile strength, ensuring reliable performance without the need for removal.
• Antibacterial Properties: The inclusion of Triclosan helps maintain a sterile environment, crucial for reducing infection risks.

Indications and Contraindications
