PGA Plus is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture coated with antibacterial components.It can effectively inhibit bacterial colonization on sutures and reduce the risk of surgical site infection.
The extraordinarily smooth, low friction proprietary coating reduces tissue drag. These synthetic absorbable sutures ensure closure through the critical wound healing period.
They retain approximately 50% of there high initial strength at two weeks and 20% of their strength at three weeks.
The suture can provide high tensile strength, guaranteeing the holding power while it can be easily handled due to the soft and smooth surface.
Additionally, PGA plus can reduce the number of recovered bacteria in a buffered aqueous environment.
