PINION KNOTLESS SUTURE Pinion knotless suture is an advanced suturing mechanism that eliminates the necessity for knot tying, resulting in quicker and more secure wound closure. It is an absorbable, monofilament, knotless suture designed for efficiency and safety. Uniquely shaped barbs with a dual-axis cut to enhance performance. Provides both uni-directional and bi-directional options to accommodate different surgical needs. Packaged in a Less Memory Tray to minimise packaging memory effect and facilitate easier handling. Faster suturing experience than traditional suturing methods, significantly improving procedural efficiency. Indications/uses: General surgery Ob-Gyn Plastic surgery Orthopedic Surgery Onco-surgery Uro-Surgery

MERISOFT CHROMIC gives an optimal, time-tested performance. This gut suture is a natural absorbable suture prepared from purified connective tissue (mostly collagen) obtained from sheep intestine. It is tanned with chromium salts to delay its absorption by the body. Catgut Sutures, derived from natural collagen, are typically packaged in a solution of isopropyl alcohol and demineralized water. This Catgut sutures, derived from natural collagen, are typically packaged in a solution of isopropyl alcohol and demineralized water. This liquid maintains their pliability and prevents them from drying out, which is crucial for their handling and performance during surgical procedures.
