Aqmen - AMP2346DN-180 - Sutures AMP2346DN-180 POLYSOLVE + VICRYL type USP 0-12 Foils

The Aqmen AMP2346DN-180 is an absorbable surgical suture designed for wound closure. It is composed of a synthetic absorbable polymer, specifically Polyglactin-910, which is a copolymer of glycolide and lactide. This material is known for its predictable absorption profile and good tensile strength retention during the critical wound healing period.

The suture is violet in color, which aids in its visibility during surgical procedures. Each unit contains 180 centimeters of suture material, providing ample length for various surgical applications. The suture is double-armed with a 40mm needle, which is a 1/2 circle round body G taper cutting design.

This needle type is suitable for suturing tissues that require a sharp, penetrating point with minimal tissue trauma, such as in delicate anatomical structures or skin closure. The suture is provided in sterile foil packaging, with 12 individual units per box, ensuring sterility and ease of dispensing in a clinical setting. The absorbable nature of this suture means it is gradually broken down by the body over time, eliminating the need for suture removal in many cases.

The material is formulated with an antibacterial agent, Triclosan, to help reduce the risk of surgical site infections. This suture offers approximately 28 days of wound support, making it appropriate for approximating tissues that require moderate tensile strength during the initial stages of healing. The combination of the synthetic absorbable polymer and the specific needle design makes this suture suitable for a range of surgical disciplines where reliable wound closure and minimal foreign body reaction are desired.

The USP size 0 suture offers a balance between strength and tissue passage.
