Ethicon VICRYL Polyglactin 910 Braided Absorbable Surgical Suture – USP 2 – 2 x 70 cm – Violet – Non-Needled Ligature Strands – V628H (Box of 36) Size: 2 Colour: Violet (D&C Violet #2) Style: Non-needled
Ethicon VICRYL is a sterile, synthetic, absorbable surgical suture composed of a copolymer made of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide (polyglactin 910). The suture is braided and coated to enhance handling characteristics, knot security and smooth tissue passage.
This USP 2 violet suture is supplied as two 70 cm (27 inch) non-needled strands per unit, designed for ligation and soft tissue approximation procedures where a needle is not required.
VICRYL sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis and have been shown to be nonantigenic, nonpyrogenic and to elicit only a slight tissue reaction during absorption. Each strand is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional hospital and clinical environments.
