  • Chemical Composition: 100% polyglycolic acid.
  • Coating: Polycaprolactone + Calcium Stearate.
  • Color Options: Violet or undyed.
  • Sizes: USP 2 to USP 8/0 (metric 5 to metric 0.4).
  • Strength Retention:
  • 14 days post-implantation: 60-70%.
  • 18 days post-implantation: 50%.
  • 21 days post-implantation: 40%.
