Chromic Catgut Sutures – All Sizes: Reliable Strength for Confident Healing
🌿 Natural Strength with Trusted Surgical Performance
Chromic Catgut Sutures are a reliable, absorbable suture solution made from purified collagen derived from bovine intestinal tissue, trusted by surgeons and clinicians worldwide for decades. Treated with chromic salts to delay absorption and enhance strength retention, these sutures offer consistent tensile strength, secure knot-tying, and dependable performance in a variety of surgical applications.
Whether used for internal soft tissue approximation, OB/GYN procedures, general surgery, or veterinary applications, chromic catgut sutures provide a natural, biodegradable closure option that supports the body’s healing process while reducing long-term foreign material exposure.
💪 Enhanced Tensile Strength & Controlled Absorption
What sets chromic catgut apart is its extended absorption profile. Thanks to chromic treatment, these sutures maintain functional tensile strength for up to 18–21 days and are fully absorbed within 90 days, depending on tissue type and individual patient factors.
This makes them ideal for procedures that require a moderate duration of wound support, such as:
Ligatures in soft tissue surgery
Subcutaneous closures
OB/GYN and urological repairs
Veterinary surgical procedures
The smooth, pliable texture of catgut allows for easy handling and knot tying, improving surgical efficiency and minimizing stress on surrounding tissues.
📏 Full Range of Sizes for Every Surgical Demand
Every patient and procedure is unique, which is why chromic catgut sutures are available in a comprehensive range of USP sizes:
5-0 to 3-0: For delicate closures in mucosal or pediatric applications
2-0 to 0: For soft tissue approximation and general surgery
1-0 and larger: For higher-tension closures requiring robust support
Each suture is individually sealed in sterile packaging, ensuring quality, safety, and readiness for immediate use in the operating room, emergency suite, or clinical setting.
No matter the setting—hospital, outpatient clinic, rural medical unit, or mobile medical teams—chromic catgut sutures deliver the adaptability and dependability needed for effective wound closure.
🧬 Biocompatible and Patient-Friendly Absorption
Chromic catgut sutures are designed to be fully absorbable within the body, gradually breaking down via enzymatic processes. This eliminates the need for removal, reduces post-operative discomfort, and shortens follow-up visits—all while ensuring the wound receives the tensile support it needs during the early healing phase.
Because they are made from natural collagen, chromic catgut sutures are biocompatible and well-tolerated, with minimal tissue reactivity when compared to untreated catgut. Their predictable absorption and low immunogenic profile make them especially suitable for patients sensitive to synthetic materials or when avoiding long-term implants is essential.
🌎 Sterile, Reliable, and Environmentally Conscious
Each chromic catgut suture is:
✅ Sterilized using reliable methods to prevent microbial contamination
✅ Latex-free and non-toxic, supporting compatibility with latex-sensitive patients
✅ Biodegradable and eco-friendly, minimizing environmental impact after use
✅ Stored in protective packaging to ensure longevity and sterility
This makes them a sustainable choice for healthcare providers seeking natural absorbable options without compromising performance or patient safety.
