Glycolon Sutures
Resorba Glycolon is a high-performance, absorbable monofilament suture designed for safe and efficient wound closure.
Produced through the copolymerisation of polyglycolic acid and ɛ-caprolactone, it offers controlled degradation in tissue, with tear resistance reducing by approximately 30% after 7 days, ideal for tissues requiring temporary support.
Why Choose Resorba Glycolon Sutures?
Smooth Monofilament Structure: Ensures atraumatic tissue passage, minimising trauma during suturing and preventing wicking without additional surface treatment.
Excellent Handling: The polymer’s structure provides high knot security and easy handling, facilitating precise surgical application.
Safe Absorption: Breaks down in tissue via water uptake, forming completely safe intermediary products and causing minimal tissue reaction.
Reliable Performance: High tear resistance and excellent knot security make Glycolon a dependable choice for surgeons.
