Surgical sutures are entwined thread from silk worm larva. Silk sutures are coated and braided non-absorbable sutures.
Silk sutures are specially treated with silicone to give strength and smoothen the surface which provides easy passage through tissues.
Silk sutures are widely used as ligature and are also used for other applications like skin, ophthalmic, GI tract, etc. and are not indicated for use in biliary and urinary tract surgery.

Silk sutures have moderate tissue reaction. It’s classified according to structure of material either monofilament suture composed of a single fiber, or multifilament (braided) composed of many small fibers braided together
According to origin of suture material, either natural like silk, cotton or catgut which made from sheep intestines, or synthetic; like poly Glycolide, poly lactic acid, nylon, poly ester And several another classification like coated or not coated, dyed or undyed.

The NEUTUS surgical sutures are as you can find them in the operating theatre, sterile packed and top quality. We use nylon threads so you can get used to the feeling of it.

• Sterile by any sterilization method such as sterilization by ethylene oxide or by gamma radiation. as the sterilization
• It should have a high tensile strength according to material size and material structure
• The composition of suture material can be used in many surgical procedures
• Without any foreign-body left inside body, irritants that caused tissue reaction
• The chemical composition should not cause toxicity in body after degradation
• Surgical suture should be non-antigenic and non-pyrogenic
• Provides prolonged tensile strength retention in tissue
• Uniform size according to suture diameter
• Should be non-electrolytic
• For easy handling and secure knot tying
• method are critical to minimize a infection of wound
• With wax to give “hand” to the suture
• Silk sutures are available in black colour
• Does not become limp or brittle
• It holds securely when knotted
• It’s easy to handle
• Causes minimal tissue trauma
