Polybond® (Veterinary)

Braided Polyester Non-Absorbable Suture

Polybond® is a braided polyester non-absorbable, sterile surgical suture, composed of polyethylene terepthalate. It is prepared from fibers of high molecular weight, long-chain, linear polyesters having recurrent aromatic rings as an integral component. The braided suture is coated uniformly with silicone to increase surface lubricity, thereby enhancing handling characteristics, ease of passage through tissue, and knot run-down properties.
