Ethicon COATED VICRYL Polyglactin 910 Braided Absorbable Surgical Suture J9566G

Ethicon Coated VICRYL is a synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and coated to enhance handling, knot security and tissue glide. Absorption occurs by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and reliable tensile strength retention during early wound healing.

This USP 6-0 violet suture is supplied in a 45 cm length and is armed with double-armed 8 mm reverse spatula needles with a 1/2 circle curvature, providing excellent control and accuracy for ophthalmic and fine microsurgical procedures requiring precise tissue handling.

Coated VICRYL sutures offer smooth passage through delicate tissue planes, secure knot formation and consistent clinical performance. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 12 for professional hospital and specialist surgical environments.
