MONOCRYL Plus Suture is indicated for use in general soft tissue approximation and/or ligation, but not for use in cardiovascular or neurological tissues, microsurgery or ophthalmic surgery. MONOCRYL Plus Suture (undyed) retains approximately 50-60% of its original strength at 7 days and approximately 20-30% at 14 days. MONOCRYL Plus Suture has been shown in vitro to inhibit bacterial colonization of the suture for 7 days or more, addressing a known risk factor for surgical site infection.
