Covidien SL-822 Sutures 3-0 Polysorb™ Undyed 75cm C-13 36/Box

Polysorb™ sutures are used in surgical interventions, including ophthalmic surgery for the purpose of soft tissue approximation and ligation.

Polysorb™ coated braided synthetic absorbable sutures (Polysorb™ sutures) are composed of Lactomer™ glycolide/lactide copolymer which is a synthetic polyester composed of glycolide and lactide (derived from glycolic and lactic acids). Polysorb™ sutures are prepared by coating the suture with a mixture of a caprolactone/glycolide copolymer and calcium stearoyl lactylate. Polysorb™ sutures are colored violet to increase visibility and are also available undyed.
