Description
The Suture, 5/0 18In Plain Gut P-3 is an absorbable sterile surgical suture made from purified collagen sourced from the serosal layer of bovine intestines. As a natural material, plain gut sutures offer biocompatibility and gradual absorption by the body, eliminating the need for manual removal post-surgery.
This particular suture is equipped with a P-3 reverse cutting needle, which features a triangular cross-section designed for easy penetration of tough or dense tissue. The reverse cutting design minimizes tissue trauma and promotes precise placement, making it well-suited for use in areas such as skin closure or dental procedures.
The 5/0 suture size provides fine handling characteristics and is typically employed in delicate surgical sites requiring minimal tissue reaction. With a length of 18 inches, the suture offers flexibility for various wound closure techniques. It maintains adequate tensile strength during the early healing phase before being absorbed by enzymatic action.
