Ethicon Chromic Gut Sutures with SH Needle – Absorbable, 27" (70cm)

Ethicon Chromic Gut Sutures with SH Needle (27" / 70cm) are sterile, absorbable surgical sutures designed for reliable wound closure. Composed of purified connective tissue (primarily collagen) from bovine or ovine sources, these sutures are treated with chromic salts to slow absorption and extend tensile strength retention compared to plain gut sutures.

Packaged in tubing fluid to maintain pliability, chromic gut sutures are suitable for procedures requiring short-to-medium term wound support. They meet all U.S. Pharmacopeia (U.S.P.) requirements for absorbable surgical sutures and are trusted by surgeons worldwide.
