Surgidac polyester sutures are nonabsorbable, sterile, surgical sutures composed of Poly (Ethylene terephthalate). They are prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component.
The monofilament sutures are uncoated and the braided sutures are available uncoated or coated uniformly with polybutylene adipate to increase surface lubricity, thereby enhancing handling characteristics, ease of passage through tissue, and knot run-down properties. Surgidac Polyester sutures are inert and elicit only minimal local tissue reaction.
