Absorbable Chromic Catgut
Chromic Catgut is a biologic absorbable suture obtained from sheep gut submucosa.
Its threads are treated whit chromic salts to prolong the absorption time of the suture.
Chromic Catgut is absorbed by the enzymatic reaction (phagocytosis). A tissue reaction may be observed before organic materials are completely absorbed.complete mass absorption is approximately in 70 days. The thread keeps its tensile strength between 14 and 21 days. This suture is sterilized by gamma radiation and is available in brown color.
