Plain Catgut Absorbable Surgical Sutures

Plain Catgut is a sterile, absorbable surgical suture derived from highly purified collagen of natural origin. As a classic absorbable natural suture, it is absorbed by the body through enzymatic digestion (phagocytosis), eliminating the need for suture removal. The natural beige/yellow color provides excellent visibility during surgical procedures.

Material:

Composed of highly purified connective tissue (collagen) derived from the submucosal fibrous layer of healthy sheep (ovine) intestine or serosal layer of bovine intestine—a natural source material with long-standing clinical history

Absorption Profile:

Quickly absorbed via phagocytosis, with full mass absorption typically occurring within 50–70 days post-implantation. Tensile strength retention: approximately 50% remains after 7 days, with complete absorption synced to surgical recovery timelines

Suture Structure:

Twisted multifilament configuration centerless-polished to a smooth, monofilament-like appearance for easy tissue passage and reduced drag

Sterility:

Individually packaged and sterilized, ensuring ready-to-use safety in operating environments
