3. Material & Craftsmanship
-
Surgical Needle: Built with high-quality Japanese imported needle steel (420J2). The needle tips undergo specialized quenching processes to ensure ultra-sharpness and smooth penetration.
-
Suture Thread: Sourced from South Korea (Meta), featuring original imported high-performance chemical fibers.
4. Absorption Profile
-
Absorption initiates after 15 days, with complete mass absorption within 60-90 days.
5. Clinical Applications
Versatile application in subcutaneous suturing, abdominal wall closure, muscle repair, ligation, and periodontal surgery. As a staple in general surgery, it is the most widely utilized suture type by veterinary professionals.
6. Advantages & Disadvantages
-
Advantages: Multi-strand braided structure for superior flexibility, fast degradation, and excellent knot security. Easy to handle for precise surgical maneuvers.
-
Disadvantages: The braided structure may carry a slightly higher risk of infection compared to monofilaments in contaminated fields.
7. ITGen Core Strengths
-
Japanese Steel Needles: Round-bodied needles feature a tapered tip to push tissue aside, minimizing trauma in delicate organs (stomach, intestines, peritoneum). Reverse cutting needles feature a triangular sharp tip for effortless penetration through tough tissues (skin, tendons).
-
Superior Tensile Strength: The multi-strand braided PGA ensures prolonged tension maintenance. ITGen sutures significantly exceed industry standards:
