New Technology in suture Manufacturing

New Technology in suture Manufacturing

Nowadays using of the suture replaces by stapler or other skin closure materials. New invention comes, but suture remains its places

The suture made of monofilament to reduce infection and tissue damage with the antibacterial coating etc. Many of the new innovation and technique using suture material for a better outcome

New bioabsorbable suture material includes self-reinforced Poly-L-Lactide (SR-PLLA), which result in longer retention of tensile strength. When compared to other types of suture

In the degree of suture, PH plays an important role. The lactide epsilon caprolactone copolymer whose degradation not affected by the changes in PH.

Antimicrobial

Antimicrobial coating with sterile bioactive glass coating to develop bone like hydroxyl appetite crystal formation around the suture. The coating activates when reacting with body fluids

Impregnation of silver to suture along with bioactive glass coating also gives good result in good antibacterial properties

Suture with the triclosan coating with enhancing the antimicrobial property
