| Product Overview | Plain Catgut Veterinary Suture is a natural absorbable surgical suture designed for temporary soft-tissue approximation and ligation in veterinary procedures. It is manufactured from purified collagen-based animal tissue and is gradually absorbed through biological enzymatic processes after implantation. The product is suitable for veterinary hospitals, commercial livestock farms, breeding facilities, field veterinary teams, and agricultural projects requiring dependable absorbable suturing materials for routine animal surgery and wound management. |
| Key Features | • Natural absorbable suture material suitable for temporary tissue support. • Gradually absorbed through enzymatic biological processes after implantation. • Smooth strand surface supports controlled passage through soft tissue. • Good handling properties help facilitate knot placement during veterinary procedures. • Suitable for soft-tissue approximation and ligation where prolonged mechanical support is not required. • Different USP sizes, strand lengths, and needle configurations are available according to project requirements. • Suitable for veterinary clinics, livestock groups, distributors, and agricultural project procurement. |
| Structural Components | The Plain Catgut Veterinary Suture generally consists of a purified collagen-based absorbable strand and, depending on the selected configuration, an attached surgical needle. Needle options may include round-body, taper-point, or cutting configurations according to the target tissue and veterinary procedure. |
| Working Principle / Structural Principle | During surgery, the suture temporarily holds tissue margins together or secures ligated tissue while healing progresses. After implantation, the collagen-based strand is gradually broken down and absorbed by the body through enzymatic processes, reducing the need for later suture removal. |
