OAKCRYL Polyglactin 910 Suture
OAKCRYL® Suture is a synthetic absorbable, braided, coated suture composed of a co-polymer made from 90% glycoside and 10% L-lactide and is both available in dyed and undyed form.
Monofilament Nylon Sutures
Nylon Polyamide Non-absorbable suture, composed of Polyamide 6 and Polyamide 6.6, guarantees extended, enduring tensile strength in tissue. Crafted from a single strand, it facilitates smooth passage through tissues, reducing trauma and the risk of infection by minimizing bacterial growth. Its flexibility enhances ease of use for skin sutures, and the inherent properties of nylon enable the production of exceptionally fine threads, making it a popular choice for ophthalmic surgery and microsurgery.

FAQs
Guide to Suture Materials
What is the difference between Absorbable VS Non-Absorbable Suture?
Sutures that lose the majority of its tensile strength within 60 days are considered absorbable. It is degraded by tissue enzymes or hydrolysis.
- Absorbable sutures are generally used as deep sutures; it does not need to be removed post-operatively.
- Non-absorbable sutures are used for surface sutures; require manual removal post-operatively.
What is the difference between Multifilament VS Monofilament Suture?
- Multifilament braided sutures handle more easily and tie well, but can potentially harbor organisms between fibers leading to increased infection risk. They should be avoided in contaminated wounds. They also tend to have higher capillarity so can absorb and transfer fluid more easily increasing potential for bacteria to enter from the skin surface.
- Monofilament sutures have a lower infection risk and a lower coefficient of friction, but with a lower ease of handling and knot security.
What is the difference between Synthetic VS Natural Suture?
- Synthetic sutures Synthetic sutures consist of human-made materials, such as nylon. It tends to be less reactive than natural materials. It tend to lose tensile strength and be absorbed at more predictable rates.
- Natural sutures Natural sutures originate from a biological source. Silk is an example of a natural suture material. It is derived from purified animal tissues (usually collagen) and are sometimes made of the purified serosa of bovine intestines.
