This PDS® Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Veterinary Surgical Suture, product code D10178, is engineered for dependable soft tissue approximation in animal health procedures requiring extended tensile strength and antimicrobial protection. Manufactured from synthetic absorbable polydioxanone monofilament, PDS® Plus provides smooth tissue passage, predictable absorption and prolonged wound support.

The integrated antibacterial technology is designed to inhibit bacterial colonisation of the suture, supporting infection risk management in veterinary surgical environments. The USP 1 diameter delivers substantial tensile performance suitable for high-tension veterinary soft tissue and fascial closure.

The extended 244 cm strand length supports continuous suturing techniques and efficient closure of large surgical sites. This suture is supplied with a CTX taperpoint needle (48 mm), enabling smooth penetration of soft tissue with minimal trauma while maintaining needle stability during placement.

With an absorption profile of approximately 182–238 days, PDS® Plus provides extended wound support during the critical healing period before gradual hydrolytic absorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 12, this product is intended for professional veterinary surgical environments requiring reliable long-term absorbable wound closure with antibacterial protection.
