PETCRYL 910 - POLYGLACTIN 910 SUTURE

Petcryl 910 is the brand name of Polyglactin 910 sutures made by Dolphin Sutures. Dolphin Sutures is the first Indian brand to introduce Polyglactin sutures in India.

Polyglactin suture is a braided and coated synthetic absorbable suture and is a co-polymer of Glycolide and L-lactide. Polyglactin 910 sutures retain tensile strength of about 70% of initial strength at 14 days of implantation. Polyglactin 910 sutures are indicated for soft tissue approximation and ligation. Polyglactin sutures have mild tissue reaction during the absorption process. Polyglactin 910 sutures manufactured by Dolphin Sutures is similar in composition to Vicryl sutures and has a similar absorption profile.

Polyglactin suture is a much superior alternative to catgut sutures since its absorption is more predictable, tensile strength is better and it exhibits little or no tissue reaction. Polyglactin sutures also exhibit better knotting properties compared to PGA sutures. Petcryl 910 sutures are available in undyed and violet colour from U.S.P. size 6-0 to size 2. Also available:- Polyglactin rapid absorption sutures

Features
- Polyglactin suture is a synthetic, braided and coated absorbable suture
- Polyglactin sutures are available from U.S.P. size 2 to size 6-0 with needle and without needle as well
- Polyglactin sutures are composed of copolymers made from 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide
- Polyglactin sutures are coated with equal parts of a copolymer of lactide and glactide with calcium stearate
- Polyglactin sutures absorb by simple hydrolytic mechanism and absorption is predictable
- Petcryl 910 suture retains 70% of the initial strength after 2 weeks of implantation
Advantages
- Petcryl 910 sutureis specially coated with Poly (glycolide-Co-L-lactide) in order to create a smoother suture that will pass through tissue easily
- Petcryl 910 sutures have good knot security and it has easy knot placement
- Petcryl 910 sutures are available with needles made from 300 series alloy steel for superior strength, sharpness and performance
