Overview for Ethicon 770G Reverse Cutting Surgical Gut Plain Suture - 12 per Box

The Ethicon Reverse Cutting Surgical Gut Plain Suture is an absorbable, sterile device designed to hold body tissues and/or wounds together after an injury or surgery.

Awesome Design. Composed of purified connective tissue (mostly collagen), the Surgical Gut Plain Suture is derived from either the serosal layer of beef (bovine) or the submucosal fibrous layer of sheep (ovine) intestines. The sutures are yellowish tan in color, are double armed (has needles at each end) and has a virtual monofilament construction. It has a size of 6-0 which is an optimal choice for general soft tissue approximation, small vessel repair or grafting and fine suturing on the hand/nailbed and face.

Absorption Rate. Because of its absorbability, the Ethicon Surgical Gut Plain Suture can be dissolved and taken in by the patient's body over time which promotes healing of the wound. The Suture has an absorption rate of 70 days and has a Breaking Strength Retention (BSR) between 7-10 days. It requires a G-1 Needle with an 11 mm length and a Prime Reverse Cutting Point Type.

The Ethicon Reverse Cutting Surgical Gut Plain Suture has a length of 18" (45cm) and a curvature fraction of 3/8 Circle.
