Sutures. Chromic Gut. 560B 3-0 27" C-3 3/8 Circle 13mm 12/Pk

This Chromic Gut suture is an absorbable, sterile surgical thread crafted from purified connective tissue derived from either the serosal layer of beef or the submucosal fibrous layer of sheep intestines. Designed for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, it is ideal for use in oral and periodontal surgery.

• Size: 3-0
• Needle length: 27 inches
• Needle type: C-3, 3/8 circle
• Needle diameter: 13 mm
• Pack quantity: 12 sutures per pack

Compared to industry standards, these sutures offer reliable absorption rates, typically resorbing within 10 to 15 days, which aligns well with tissue healing times in soft tissue surgeries. The chromic treatment enhances the natural properties of gut sutures by providing increased resistance to enzymatic digestion, extending the absorption duration and reducing tissue reaction compared to plain gut sutures.

Key Technical Advantages:
Technology and Performance

The Chromic Gut sutures leverage biologically derived materials for superior biocompatibility, ensuring minimal inflammatory response while maintaining adequate tensile strength throughout the critical healing period. Their needle design—a C-3, 3/8 circle with a 13 mm diameter—facilitates precise tissue penetration and ease of handling, which is essential for delicate oral and periodontal procedures. Furthermore, the sterile packaging guarantees safety and readiness for immediate surgical use, meeting stringent medical sterilization standards. These sutures offer the perfect balance of strength, absorption time, and patient comfort essential for optimal surgical outcomes.
