Description
Serasynth®
Serasynth® (violet) shows ideal absorbability for indications where a longterm wound healing is required or where a secure wound adaptation over a longer period of time is generally advisable. The material is characterised by its extremely smooth passage through the tissues, as well as its high linear and knot tensile strength. Its half-life is approximately 28-42 days and the absorption time is 180-210 days.
Seralene®
Seralene® (blue) is a non-absorbable suture made from polyvinylide fluoride (PVDF). PVDF is related to PTFE. In comparison with polypropylene, SERALENE® has a smooth pore-free surface, which ensures an optimally smooth passage through the tissues. The thread is characterised by a high tensile strength and the tissues heal well around the sutures. SERALENE® therefore has all the positive characteristics of polypropylene. In addition, PVDF offers high elasticity and optimal tying properties.
SeraFIT®
Non-stiffened Serafit® (violet) is a braided absorbable suture made of polyglycolic acid, with a special coating. Together with the distinctive braided structure, this gives the thread optimal properties, in particular: excellent flexibility, easy passage through the tissues, minimal sawing effect and good knot security. Non-stiffened Serafit® is used in minimally invasive surgery for extracorporeal knotting. Stiffened Serafit® (violet) is the same basic material, but it holds it shape thanks to a special treatment of the thread. Stiffened material is used for loops and for intracorporeal knotting. Its half-life is about 18 days. The thread is completely absorbed within 60-90 days.
