Product Description

ORYL PD MONO (Polydioxanone) monofilament synthetic absorbable suture is prepared from the polyester, poly (p-dioxanone).Two important characteristics describe the in vivo performance of absorbable sutures first tensile strength retention and second the absorption rate (loss of mass). This synthetic absorbable suture has been formulated to minimize the variability of these characteristics and to provide wound support through an  extended Healing period.

Type :                      Monofilament

Material :                Polyester poly (p-dioxanone)

Color :                     Violet

Tissue reaction :    Minimal

Absorption :          The hydrolytic action by which the material is broken down results in total

                               absorption in approximately 180 to 210 days. Approximately 50% of tensile 

                               strength remains after 42 days.

Tensile Strength :  50% tensile strength is retained for 14 days.

USP Range :          4/0 - 2

Sterilization :         EO (Ethylene Oxide)

Needle Type :        Round bodied, cutting edge, taper point, straight, blunt point

Packing :                In aluminium foil packages with or without needle
