Description
Suture, Plain Gut 4-0 1X18 PS-2 is a natural absorbable surgical suture composed of purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) derived from healthy bovine serosa. It is intended for soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring rapid absorption and minimal long-term tensile strength. The 4-0 size makes it suitable for moderately delicate closures, including oral, gynecologic, and subcutaneous procedures.
Plain gut sutures provide high initial tensile strength and are absorbed enzymatically by the body, typically completing mass absorption within 70 days. Their natural composition ensures minimal inflammatory reaction while maintaining secure tissue approximation during early wound healing.
The PS-2 needle is a 3/8 circle reverse cutting design, ideal for skin and other dense tissues. Its non-reflective finish improves visibility under bright surgical lighting, enhancing accuracy and control during wound closure in precision-driven clinical environments.
