Chromic Gut 4.0 19mm 18” sold by Alpha Beta Dental Supply.
When Surgical Gut Suture is placed in tissue, a moderate tissue inflammation occurs
characteristic of foreign body response to a substance. This is followed by a loss of tensile strength and suture mass, as the proteolytic enzymatic digestive process dissolves the surgical gut. This process continues until the suture is completely absorbed. DemeTech manufactures its Chromic Catgut sutures with the highest quality collagen, maintaining a composition of 97%-98% of pure collagen. DemeTech's Chromic Catgut sutures are covered in chromic salt to prolong integrity, minimize tissue reactivity, and minimize the chance of adverse reactions. Tensile strength is retained for up to 14 days, and sometimes as long as 21 days. Allows for smooth passage through tissue.
