SYNTHALIN™
Product Description
With the aid of ultramodern techniques, this Synthalin is manufactured using premium grade isotactic crystalline stereoisomer by our highly competent team of professionals. In order to perform cardiovascular, ophthalmic and neurological operations without any side effects, it is extensively preferred by surgeons to hold body tissues together. The provided Synthalin is known for its pliability, anti-allergic effects and softness.
SYNTHALIN (Polypropylene Sutures) (clear or pigmented) are non-absorbable, sterile surgical suture composed of an isotactic crystalline stereoisomer of polypropylene, a synthetic linear polyolefin. The suture is pigment blue to enhance visibility.
SYNTHALIN Polypropylene Sutures are indicated for use in general soft tissue approximating and/or ligation, including use in cardiovascular, ophthalmic procedures, and neurological procedures.
