PGA Sutures

Petcryl AB is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture made from polyglycolic acid. It carries a Triclosan coating, a broad-spectrum antibacterial and antifungal agent intended to inhibit bacterial colonization of the suture itself — giving surgeons an antibacterial-coated option within a familiar suture material. The suture is absorbed by hydrolysis over time, so suture removal is not required.

  • Features

    • Antibacterial Coating: Coated with Triclosan, intended to inhibit bacterial colonization of the suture.
    • Absorbable Material: Made from polyglycolic acid, absorbed by hydrolysis over time.
    • Strength and Flexibility: Tensile strength and pliability support suture placement and knot formation.
    • Versatile Usage: Suitable for various surgical procedures.
    • Predictable Absorption: Absorption proceeds by hydrolysis over a predictable period.
  • Advantages

    • Antibacterial-Coated Option: Coated with Triclosan, a broad-spectrum antibacterial and antifungal agent intended to inhibit bacterial colonization of the suture, giving surgeons an antibacterial-coated option within a familiar suture material.
    • Absorbability: Derived from polyglycolic acid, these sutures are absorbed over time, so suture removal is not required.
    • Predictable Absorption: Absorption kinetics are predictable, with gradual breakdown by hydrolysis.
    • Tissue Reaction: Tissue reaction is characterised as Grade-1, slight.
