Description

Taper Point Plain Gut Absorbable Suture, Size 2-0, 27", CT-1 Needle is a sterile, absorbable surgical suture derived from the purified connective tissue of bovine serosal layers. Composed primarily of collagen, the suture is naturally absorbable and processed to ensure uniform diameter and tensile strength. It is designed to provide short-term wound support during the initial healing phase.

The CT-1 needle features a taper point design, suitable for soft tissue penetration without cutting. Its smooth profile allows precise and atraumatic passage through delicate tissues. The 27-inch suture length is appropriate for medium-depth closures, offering versatility in a range of surgical applications.

Plain gut sutures are indicated for general soft tissue approximation and ligation. Common areas of use include gynecologic, urologic, gastrointestinal, and oral surgeries. Due to its natural origin, the suture integrates well with human tissues and is gradually absorbed by enzymatic action, without the need for removal.
