This PDS™ Plus Antibacterial (Polydioxanone) Surgical Suture, product code PDP9236T, is engineered for dependable soft tissue approximation in procedures requiring extended strand length, prolonged tensile strength and antimicrobial protection. Manufactured from synthetic absorbable polydioxanone monofilament, PDS™ Plus incorporates triclosan antibacterial technology to support infection risk management in surgical environments.

The violet monofilament construction provides excellent visibility within the operative field while ensuring smooth tissue passage and reduced tissue drag. Polydioxanone delivers predictable hydrolytic absorption and extended tensile strength retention during the critical wound healing phase.

Featuring an extended 150 cm strand length, this configuration is suitable for continuous suturing techniques, larger operative fields and procedures requiring substantial material without interruption. Supplied with an MO-2 needle, this variant supports precise penetration and controlled soft tissue approximation across a range of surgical applications.

With an absorption profile of approximately 182–238 days, PDS™ Plus maintains strength throughout healing before gradual hydrolytic absorption. Supplied sterile and single-use in a box of 24, this product is intended for professional hospital and surgical settings requiring reliable long-term absorbable wound closure with antibacterial protection.
