Chromic catgut all sizes * 3

Chromic catgut is an absorbable surgical suture made from natural collagen fibers, typically derived from the intestines of sheep or cows. It is treated with chromic salts to increase its resistance to body enzymes, which slows down its absorption rate and prolongs its durability in the body. Chromic catgut sutures are used for internal tissue closures, where long-term strength is not required, such as in soft tissue approximation or in procedures involving mucous membranes. Because it is absorbable, there is no need for suture removal, making it ideal for internal surgeries, obstetrics, and gynecology.
