Frequently asked questions
Are these sutures suitable for general soft tissue work?
Yes, Monosof nylon sutures are specifically engineered for general soft tissue approximation and ligation.
What is the benefit of the reverse cutting needle?
The C-15 3/8 circle reverse cutting needle is designed to provide efficient and smooth tissue penetration during surgical procedures.
Does this suture cause significant tissue reaction?
No, these sutures are engineered from inert Nylon 6 to provide a low inflammatory response, promoting better patient outcomes.
Are these sutures absorbable?
No, Monosof nylon sutures are nonabsorbable, making them ideal for procedures requiring long-term, stable tissue approximation.
Is the material consistent over time?
Yes, Monosof is constructed from high-quality long-chain aliphatic polymers (Nylon 6) that maintain consistent elasticity and structural integrity after implantation.
Do I need to worry about contamination before use?
No, all Monosof sutures are supplied in a sterile state to ensure clinical safety and readiness for use in surgical environments.
Why is the suture black in color?
The black coloration is achieved using logwood extract, which is specifically intended to enhance visibility for the surgeon during procedures.
How many sutures are in a single pack?
Each pack contains 12 strands of sutures, each equipped with its own needle.
What is the specific needle length included?
This variant includes a precision-engineered 26 mm needle.
Is the coating smooth for easier passage?
These sutures are uncoated monofilament nylon, which is designed to minimize tissue trauma while providing secure ligation.
