MONOPRONE

Monoprone – Poliglecaprone 25 suture is monofilament synthetic absorbable surgical suture prepared from a copolymer of glycolide and caprolactone. It is slippery, making it easier to pass than a braided suture. Poliglecaprone 25 suture is absorbed by hydrolysis. Poliglecaprone is available as Violet and Undyed.
