LuxSutures® Chromic Catgut NON-CE Absorbable Surgical Sutures are manufactured from purified natural collagen derived from animal submucosa and treated with chromic salts to extend tensile strength and slow absorption.

This USP 4/0 suture is supplied with a DS 19 reverse cutting needle and a 75 cm strand length, allowing precise cutting action and controlled penetration in delicate and finer soft tissue layers.

Designed for soft tissue approximation and ligation, LuxSutures® Chromic Catgut NON-CE provides reliable wound support during the early healing phase before being gradually absorbed through enzymatic digestion.
