Polyglycolic Acid (violet) Monofilament Suture
The Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) Violet Monofilament Suture is an absorbable surgical suture designed for secure, predictable wound closure with minimal tissue reaction. Made from synthetic polyglycolic acid, this monofilament suture offers smooth passage through tissue, high initial tensile strength, and gradual absorption, making it ideal for internal soft tissue approximation.
The violet color enhances visibility during surgery, and the monofilament design reduces capillarity and bacterial harboring; supporting faster healing with reduced infection risks.
