Monofilament Polypropylene Suture

Polypropylene Suture (When Life depends on the thread)

Monofilament Polypropylene Suture (UNILENE) is a nonabsorbable sterile surgical suture composed of an isostatic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene, a synthetic linear polyolefin. The suture is pigmented blue to enhance visibility.

Polypropylene Suture is characterized by having high tensile strength, total chemical inertia, as well as great mystical compatibility. Polypropylene is a non-absorbable surgical suture with minimal tissue reaction and optimal tissue slip.

Polypropylene having a homogeneous and extremely smooth surface minimizes trauma by passing through tissues and the dragging of microorganisms. All these characteristics make it a suture material that can be used advantageously in all types of surgical interventions, from Skin Closure to Cardiovascular or Digestive.

Indications

Monofilament Polypropylene Suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological procedures.

  • Smooth Surface results in minimal tissue trauma
  • Being a monofilament with smooth surface never support bacteria growth followed by capillary action
  • Uniform elasticity supports small movements results in a cosmetic effect
  • Ultra-smooth surface results in negligible pain
  • Blue pigmentation enhances visibility
  • The suture is dyed blue color makes it clearly visible in the operative field.
  • Polypropylene (transparent or pigmented) are sterile non-absorbable surgical sutures composed of an isotactic crystalline
  • stereoisomer of polypropylene, a linear synthetic polyolefin.
  • Polypropylene surgical sutures are indicated for use in approximation soft tissue ligation in general, including use in
  • For Cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological procedures.
  • Cardiovascular surgeons have relied on Polypropylene Sutures for more than 40 years and have used them on more than 100 million people worldwide.
