Medico Polyglycolic Acid Suture
Medico manufactures many different types of polyglycolic acid sutures or also known as PGA sutures. Our sutures are used by many surgeons all over the world. They are commonly used for various types of surgeries such as gastrointestinal, ophthalmic, general, orthopedic, and more. Also, they are used for wound closure in urology, gynecology, obstetrics, cardiology, neurology, etc.
Polyglycolic acid sutures are absorbable, sterile, and synthetic braided multifilament surgical sutures that are made up of polymers of glycolide acids. They are coated with calcium stearate and polycaprolactone. Uncoated PGA sutures are also available. Some of their features are excellent tensile strength, long absorption period, excellent handling properties, and great knot security. In comparison to collagen absorbable sutures, the PGA sutures have more flexibility and strength.

Medico Polyglycolic Acid Suture
The polyglycolic acid sutures with needles are ideal to use for gastrointestinal surgery, ophthalmic surgery, general surgery, and other surgeries. They are available in various needlepoint types such as blunt point, round-bodied, and many more.
The round bodied polyglycolic acid sutures are designed with a round bodied needlepoint. They can be used for repairing cuts and closing incisions from different kinds of surgeries. Moreover, they have been braided tightly and coated with polycaprolactone and calcium stearate.
The disposable polyglycolic acid sutures have great tensile strength, and a long period of absorption, and provide firm and secure knotting. They are suitable for single use. In addition, they are medical-grade, sterile, absorbable, and approved by the FDA, ISO, and CE.
The USP3/0 polyglycolic acid sutures are designed with a high-quality stainless steel medical needle. They are manufactured from high-quality material that conforms to the quality standards. Also, they have excellent strength since they have a large diameter.
The dental polyglycolic acid sutures are ideal for dental implantology and to close dental surgical sites. They are absorbable and disposable sutures that feature high initial tensile strength, easy handling, secure knot tying, and smooth passage through tissue.
The veterinary polyglycolic acid sutures have a multi-strand weaving technology to increase their strength and prevent breakage. They are coated in order to add smoothness and lubrication. Moreover, their tensile strength is higher than silk.
Medico Polyglycolic Acid Suture Features
The polyglycolic acid sutures have a long absorption period since they are made up of synthetic polymers. Usually, their absorption time ranges from 60 up to 90 days.
The polyglycolic acid sutures are designed to have a soft and smooth texture. As a result, they are easy to knot and can provide a firm and secure knotting.
The polyglycolic acid sutures have superior tensile strength. In fact, they have greater tensile strength than the catgut sutures and polyglactin sutures.
We manufacture all of the polyglycolic acid sutures in accordance with the quality standards. They are certified by the FDA, ISO13485, CE2202, and other quality standards.
Polyglycolic Acid Suture Materials
The polyglycolic acid sutures are made up of 100% glycolide. They are made from a linear homopolymer of glycolic or hydroxyacetic acid that is extruded into thin filaments. After that, they are braided into sutures in a variety of diameters.
Moreover, they are a multifilament suture material that is absorbable, rigid, synthetic, and has high molecular weight. And since they are made of synthetic polymers, they maintain the incision line with a higher tensile strength than most sutures. They will also resorb more slowly. Furthermore, they are sterilized by ethylene oxide. They can also be coated for easy passage through tissues.
Distinctive Characteristics of Polyglycolic Acid Suture
- composed of polymers of glycolide acids
- has a lower tendency to irritate tissue
- longer absorption period and greater tensile strength than other sutures
- smooth tie down
- easy passage through tissues with minimal drag needed
- sterilized by ethylene oxide
- thread in undyed or violet color
- provides a secure and firm knotting
- only elicits mild tissue reactivity during the process of absorption
Polyglycolic Acid Suture Advantages
The polyglycolic acid sutures have many advantages. Some of their advantages include:
- equally coated with calcium stearate and polycaprolactone to have a smoother suture that will easily pass through the tissue
- Have a tensile strength that is greater than catgut and polyglactin sutures
- Have an easy knot placement and knot security
- Braided tightly to improve surface smoothness and strength
- FDA-approved polymer material
- suitable suture material for animals
- available in various types of needle shapes such as 1/2 circle, 3/8 circle, 5/8 circle, 1/4 circle, etc.

Custom Polyglycolic Acid Suture to Improve Your Business
The polyglycolic acid suture threads are tightly braided multifilament surgical sutures that have excellent tensile strength, long absorption period, excellent knotting ability, and synthetic coating. Also, they are widely used for urology, gastroenterology, pediatrics, gynecology, general surgery, and many more.
You can use the surgical polyglycolic acid sutures for general surgery, gastrointestinal surgery, plastic surgery, ophthalmic surgery, and many other surgeries. They have high-quality and medical-grade needles. Also, their threads have good toughness and elasticity.
The undyed polyglycolic acid sutures are commonly used for soft tissue closure in all types of dental surgeries. They are designed with a laser-drilled stainless steel needle to lessen the disruption of tissues.
The absorbable polyglycolic acid sutures have higher flexibility and strength than the collagen absorbable sutures. They have a smooth and soft texture to provide safety and ease in knotting. Also, they are sterilized by ethylene oxide.
The USP2/0 polyglycolic acid sutures are made from 100% glycolide with calcium stearate and polycaprolactone coating. They are absorbable, synthetic, sterile, and suitable for various kinds of surgical applications. They have accurate knotting placement and decrease the irritation of tissues.
We manufacture the two sutures using synthetic polyemers. Consequently, they can maintain incision line without losing tensile strength for a long time than most sutures in the market.
Of course, their resorption rate is very slow.
First consider importing Polyglycolic Acid Suture from reliable manufacturer such as Medico. Then, you should consider type of synthetic coating, tensile strength, knot security, extent of tissue reaction, resistance to infection, handling characteristics and eventual abruption by the body tissue.
Within the first 2 weeks, it will maintain 75% of the original tensile strength. However, after 3 weeks it can only maintain 50% and just 25% during the fourth week.
