VestiSyn
VestiSyn, synthetic absorbable sutures, are synthesized from polyglyconate, a copolymer of glycolic add and trimethylene carbonate. Degradation process is through hydrolysis, thereby provides predictable and reliable absorption.
Properties / Characteristics
- Excellent strength retention
- Excellent knot tying security
- Excellent handling
- Minimal memory
- Predictable absorption profile
- Retention of 50% of initial tensile strength after 30 days of post-implant
- Complete mass absorption within six (6) months

Vestiryl Plus
Vestiryl Plus, braided and coated synthetic absorbable sutures, are composed of LACTOMER 9-lglycolide/lactide copolymer, a synthetic polyester composed of glycolide and lactide, derivatives of glycolic and lactic acids.
Degradation process is through hydrolysis, thereby provides predictable and reliable absorption.
Properties / Characteristics
- Excellent strength over the critical wound healing period
- Excellent knot security
- Excellent handling
- Predictable absorption profile
- Retention of -50% of knot tensile strength after 20 days
- Complete mass absorption between 60 to 80 days

VestiMax
VestiMax, a monofilament, synthetic absorbable suture, prepared from the polyester, poly, (p-dioxanone). The inherent flexibility of its polymer allows a polycioxanone suture to be fabricated into a monofilament fibre useful for all sizes of sutures. It elicits a low order of tissue response and is absorbed by simple hydrolysis.
Properties / Characteristics
- Has greater pliability than polypropylene suture and
- Has greater strength than that of other monofilaments
- Retains its su-ength for longer periods than other synthetic absorbable sutures
- – 58 per cent versus I to 5 per cent at four weeks and
- – 14 per cent versus zero per cent at eight weeks
- Complete absorption: 185 to 235 days
