Mono AB

Mono AB is a sterile, synthetic, monofilament absorbable surgical suture composed of a copolymer of glycolide and caprolactone. The suture is coated with Triclosan, an antimicrobial agent that inhibits bacterial colonization on the suture, reducing the risk of surgical site infections. This combination ensures optimal patient safety by enhancing the suture’s resistance to infections while maintaining a smooth tissue passage and secure knot integrity.

Features
- Mono AB is a synthetic monofilament antibacterial absorbable suture coated with Triclosan.
- Poliglecaprone sutures are available from size 2-0 to size 4-0. Sutures are available in undyed (beige-golden) and dark violet colour.
- Mono AB sutures are absorbed by simple hydrolytic mechanism and the absorption is predictable.
- Mono AB sutures are composed of polymers made from 100% homo polymer of Poly (glycolic-co-caprolactone) (PGCL).
Advantages
- Mono AB sutures have good knot security and easy knot placement.
- Mono AB sutures are available with needles made from 300 series alloy steel for superior strength, sharpness and performance.
- Mono AB sutures have excellent tensile strength and needle attachment strength.
- Mono AB suture with triclosan coating helps to fight Surgical site infection.
- Mono AB sutures pass through the tissues easily and since the suture monofilament in nature, knotting is very easy.
