Petcryl AB
Petcryl AB is a synthetic absorbable surgical suture made from polyglycolic acid and coated with Triclosan, giving surgeons an antibacterial-coated option within a familiar suture material.
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.
