• Polyglycolic acid suture, resorbable 75cm, round needle 1/2, 30 mm, USP 0, 12 pieces/ box Polyglycolic acid suture is intended for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in plastic and ophthalmological procedures, but not for use in cardiovascular and neurological tissues.

  • The polyglycolic acid suture is a braided, synthetic and sterile multifilament absorbable surgical suture, prepared from 100% glycolide homopolymers. (vetro.ro)
  • It was found that the POLYGLYCOLIC ACID suture is not antigenic, it is not pyrogenic and causes only a slight tissue reaction during the absorption process. (vetro.ro)
  • The composition of the dyed version of the polyglycolic acid suture is 96.1% - 99.2% polyglycolic acid, 0.4% - 2.2% polycaprolactone, 0.2% - 1.5% calcium stearate and (vetro.ro)
  • Approximate percentage of initial resistance remaining 14 days - 82% 21 days - 56% 28 days - 20% The absorption of the suture with polyglycolic acid essentially ends in about 90 days. (vetro.ro)
  • Progressive loss of tensile strength and eventual absorption of the suture occurs by means of hydrolysis, where the polymer degrades to adipic acid which is subsequently absorbed and metabolized by the tissues. (medi-shop.gr)
  • [ 3 ] Urinary bladder replacements made from autologous stem cells seeded on collagen and polyglycolic acid polymer constructs have been used to augment bladders for patients with myelomeningocele. (medscape.com)
  • The implantation of neonatal rodent intestinal organoid units (partially digested pieces of the intestine) attached to biodegradable polymer scaffolds into the rodent omentum produced cystic structures lined by epithelial cells. (medscape.com)
  • Sutures (or stitches) are typically applied using a needle with an attached piece of thread and are secured with surgical knots. (neasesneedlework.com)
  • Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) copolymer is among of the most biomaterials used. (bvsalud.org)
  • The specific formulation of the polyurethane dipping provides a secure grip on dry or slightly oily pieces. (nbglove.com)
  • Another option is anastomotic sutures, which are used to repair large wounds or incisions that require stitching together two pieces of tissue (as when repairing a hernia). (universalsutures.com)
