Johnson & Johnson Vicryl Violet Braided 90 cm 0 VP2518

Overview Johnson & Johnson Vicryl Violet Braided 90 cm 0 VP2518

Ethicon Vicryl Violet braided suture (90cm, 0, VP2518) is a sterile, synthetic absorbable surgical thread. Its copolymer composition consists of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide. Due to its biodegradability, this suture is unsuitable for applications demanding prolonged tissue apposition. Hydrolysis governs the suture's absorption, initiating with tensile strength reduction, subsequently leading to mass loss. Intended for general soft tissue approximation and ligation, including ophthalmic procedures; however, it's contraindicated for cardiovascular or neurological applications. **Specifications:** * Needle Length: 40mm * Suture Length: 90cm * Color: Violet * Suture Type: Braided, Synthetic * Absorption: 56-70 days (avg. 63 days) * Diameter: USP 2-0 * Material: Polyglactin 910 * Needle: 40mm, 1/2 circle reverse cutting, heavy port * Coating: Calcium Stearate * Tensile Strength Retention: 75% at 14 days, 50% at 21 days, 25% at 28 days **Usage:** For use by qualified medical personnel only. **Storage:** Cool, dry conditions.
