Description

  • Monosof monofilament nylon sutures are inert, nonabsorbable, sterile surgical sutures composed of the long-chain aliphatic polymers Nylon 6 and are available either dyed black with logwood extract or undyed (clear)
  • Monosof sutures maintain a high level of elasticity after implantation while eliciting a low inflammatory response
  • Monosof sutures are used in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation

Frequently asked questions

Does this suture material minimize tissue inflammation?

Yes. The Monosof nylon suture is crafted from inert, long-chain aliphatic polymers. This biocompatible design ensures a low inflammatory response, making it an excellent choice for patient safety during healing.

Is this suture reliable for maintaining wound closure?

Absolutely. It is engineered for high elasticity, which allows the material to maintain superior structural integrity and tension post-implantation, ensuring reliable and secure wound approximation.

Does the taper cutting needle provide precise penetration?

The C-1 taper cutting needle is precision-engineered to balance penetration force with tissue preservation. Its 3/8 circle curvature is specifically optimized for efficient and controlled tissue entry.

Is the suture material easy to see during surgery?

Yes, the suture is dyed black. This color choice is intentional to provide high visibility against tissue, allowing surgeons to maintain better control and precision during complex procedures.

What is the primary benefit of the monofilament construction?

The monofilament structure provides a smooth, uniform surface that facilitates easy tissue passage, reducing trauma and drag as the suture is drawn through the site.

Are these sutures suitable for ligation procedures?

Yes. While primarily designed for general soft tissue approximation, these Monosof sutures are fully indicated for surgical ligation procedures where a high-quality, nonabsorbable material is required.

Is the needle made of durable medical-grade steel?

Each 13 mm needle is crafted from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring it remains rigid and sharp throughout the surgical process for consistent performance.

How many strands are included in the packaging?

This product comes in a convenient professional-grade configuration consisting of a 12-strand package, ensuring you have adequate supply for your surgical needs.

What are the specific physical dimensions of this suture?

This specific variant features:

  • Suture Size: 6-0
  • Suture Length: 10 inches
  • Needle Length: 13 mm
Are these sutures sterile and ready for clinical use?

Yes, all Monosof sutures are provided sterile and in factory-new condition, meeting the high standards required for immediate use in sterile surgical environments.
